So i hear this is supposed to be the new future for a while now. No Timing belts or Cam shafts. Solenoid actuated valves that are computer controlled. I figure that a non crank powered valve train has got to be worth at least 20-30hp on a performance v8.
But the real question is.....
When this technology is commonplace how difficult will it be to get a valve actuator retro kit on a push rod motor? I think between using a crank sensor signal and injector pulses that something like this would be possible in a SBF with a actuator controller unit. Something like this could give an old engine a power band that looks even better the new 5.0
What do you guys think?
