ps Need new electronic valave drive system.
So, I remember this small car perfectly .....Carlos wrote:Thinking about links, I remember a single overhead cam twin that NSU built for a very small car, in the late 50's or early 60's, I've actually seen one, instead of gears or a chain to drive the overhead cam - it used a link.
Isn't this basically desmodromic valve actuation (i.e. no springs)?.. the difference being you've used pistons instead of valves... yes this design does mean that when the "valve" (inatke and exhaust pistons) are at full lift they don't get in the way of the air flow.... the problem is when the "valve" (small pistons) are at part lift the flow path through them is very poor... so the overall ability of an engine with pistons for valves to "suck" in (allow in!) air is worse..... The beauty of poppet valves is the air flow through them at part lift is pretty good...Feliks wrote: But it, you know it definitely :

My Latin is very poor. I know the first two words Nihil (nothing) and nove (nine), but I don't understand the rest of the phrase.
I guess the Polish public school system is better than here in the U.S.!
