Note that there is a single cam version and a twin cam version - both with patents.

 

twin cam OHV? has that been done before? that is freaking crazy, and direct injection? i didnt read that on the other thread, this motor is going to be like the greatest thing ever.

 

 

Definately some interesting stuff. Thanks for the find.

 

Small Block Chevy FTW!!!!

 

So is the 3v back on?

 

Not necessarily.

 

I didn't have time to read all of it, but on the single cam 3v, are they patenting the 3v or their particular solution for it? I'm not sure of Fords arrangement, so I'm guessing its the packaging. The 2 cam version is certainly interesting! Note the date...3 and a half years ago!

 

they are patenting this config for a 3 valve OHV engine

ford is using a 3 valve OHC design

 

Very interesting .

 

Those are awesome, nice find.

Check out the dual spark plug setup on pg. 3 of the dual cam engine's patent.

 

Notice that Fred Rozario, who is the GM engineer who accompanied the 3V CTS-V in the one story and is quoted in AW in the other, is listed as one of the inventors for the single cam 3V.

 

Remember the XV8 engine in the Signum concept from a few years ago?

It had two, in block cams and three valve heads!

Some features:

4.3 L
300 HP
Small Size
Direct injection
DoD (AFM Now)
3-valve heads

VVT and cam phasing

Didn't Scott allude to not being stuck with the "LS" designation for the engines?
