ABSTRACT:
A compact V-type engine arrangement wherein an odd number of cylinders are formed in opposite cylinder banks of differing lengths with the shorter bank having one less cylinder than the longer bank. A space adjacent the end of the shorter cylinder bank and generally opposite one of the cylinders of the longer bank is utilized to mount an engine driven mechanism, such as a diesel fuel injection pump, which is preferably connected to the individual cylinders for coaction therewith in timed relationship with the engine cycle. Novel compact means for driving the engine fuel injection pump or other mechanism, as well as other mechanical features, are also provided.
