The use of a valve train consisting of camshaft, lifters, pushrods, rockers and 
heavy springs is really a fairly primitive way to open and close valves, and is 
certainly a performance limiter.  It seems like with the current development of 
electronic fuel injection, the same elctronics could be applied to opening anc 
closing valves.  Sort of a solonoid, operated by the same kind of ECU as EFI, 
in place of the entire valve train.  Any thoughts?
