really. . .
never heard of that. as i understand the concept of the non-interference configuration, it's non-interference, not mostly-non-interference.

the engine, pistons and valves, afterall, move the same no matter what you're doing at the time.

i'd like to read how that happened on the 3.2 sohc isuzu engines. can you point us to those posts please gizmo?

thanks,
