ABSTRACT:
A valve train mechanism for a multi-valve internal combustion engine having hemispherical combustion chambers and in which each chamber has a pair of radial exhaust valves located along one side of the longitudinal axis of the engine and has a pair of radial intake valves located along the other side of the aforementioned longitudinal axis and in which an inverted "L" shaped actuator is provided for actuating each of the exhaust and intake valves and the guide pins supporting the actuators associated with at least one pair of same-function valves are positioned relative to the valves so as to cause the actuators to reciprocate along and oscillate about the associated guide pins while the associated pair of same-function valves are moved between an open position and a closed position.
