Uuummmmmm, yes you can pull the head on a SOHC without pulling the cam. NO you can not pull the head on a DOHC without pulling the cams. Cams sit right above the head bolts. LS, GSR, B16, ect.........

yea on SOHC the head bolts on are on both sides of the cam, unlike on a DOHC the cams are right above the head bolts which makes you remove the cams to remove the head.
