Anyone know about any interesting articles to share about camless engines?
Here is one link. http://autospeed.com/cms/title_Camless-Eng...10/article.html Having infinitely variable cam timing would open so much performance and economy it just boggles my little mind! And not having cam chains to worry about would be something positive also. Just imagine a 2 liter type 4 with heads that would essentially have dual overhead camshafts with infinitely variable valve timing. WOW!! Tom |

They rotate to seat better. When we switch valves in a head ina car we spin them on purpose with valve lapping compound to assure that the seat shape and the valve shape are identical and provide a really good seal. Round is easier to assure the seal because of the ability to spin them in this procedure.
