ABSTRACT:
An internal combustion engine is provided having an accessory drive system. A high-pressure fuel pump assembly is mounted with respect to the engine and driven by the accessory drive system. Additionally, the internal combustion engine includes an engine block and at least one cylinder head mounted thereto. The engine block and the at least one cylinder head delineate a plane. The high-pressure fuel pump assembly includes a high-pressure fuel pump that is mounted substantially behind the plane. The high-pressure fuel pump is driven by a drive shaft which is configured to collapse and/or telescope in the presence of an axial force of sufficient magnitude.
