Nobody?

 

Oh man that is nice. I want one.

 

There are industrial apps for the 6BT and 4BT that use a valve cover w/a screw-in cap for oil fill.

 

If you watch the video the front valve cover has an oil fill port.

 

Here's the oil-fill valve cover.

I think you have to use their valve covers.

 

Looks to me like it could use compressed air to push down on the top of the exhaust valve stem, distributed by the puck on the front of the timing cover. So yes, it would be part of the one-piece valve cover.

I like it because it appears the only electronics would be to turn it on and off, and the actual workings is all mechanical/pneumatic.

 

Please let us know when they're ready. Gotta have one!

 

Who are these guys? Where can we find more info.

 

That isn't the cam gear. It's the one for the fuel injection pump.

 

Does it turn the same speed as the cam gear? Because if it did, it would translate easily- two turns of the gear would put it on each of the exhaust valves once.

 

I have read a bit about the setup on other forums. It uses oil to activate the plungers. The design shown in the video got scrapped. They have a new drive now. They won't let out anymore info for patenting reasons.

 

I believe so, they are the same size(cam and pump gear, which is twice the size of the crank gear).

 

Here, learn a little bit about what you're wondering about before you look like an idiot commenting on something you're clueless about:

Mark.

 

I was making an observation about how they drive it. Two turns of the crank makes for two turns of the cam and pump gear, so if it is driven off one of those, it would activate each cylinder exactly once.

Problem with the tecbrake link is these engines don't have unit injectors.
