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?
