excuse the crappy drawing.

its a design based on using spool valves.

the timing is definatally not right in these mockup drawings.
i still havn't thought of a way to get the valves themselfs to move.
but i thought it was a really good ides to free up some friction.

instead of all that valvetrain movement and friction, you just have 4 spool shafts that move.

its probably been done before, just my thought.
i am really likeing the idea of electronic valve control though, using siliniods to open and clothes the valves.... think of that for awhile, no cam whatsoever, you just enter how long you want each valve open into a computer, in theroy you could have a race motor and a economy motor in the same car.

anywho, here it is.
