| - Single overhead exhaust valve, single side inlet valve per cylinder.Although this valve arrangement is cited as "one side and one overhead valve," both valves are situated in a lateral pocket from/to which gases flow. Therefore both valves are "side valves" one on top of this lateral pocket and one on its bottom. There are no valves on the combustion chamber or on the overhead position. (en)
