Looks like the exhaust cams are gear driven by the inlets and the vanos gear is inside the sprockets

If you all had to do was touch the nice warm (red hot) pipes for that engine I'm sure half of you here would.

shame you won't be able to see anything other than a big boring lump of black plastic once it's in an engine bay.

why do all modern engines have to look so monumentally dull?

That's correct, same as an M60 except the M60 doesn't have the vanos.

Actually thats bullsh!t!!! The M60 has inlet camshaft driven exhaust camshaft, but it's via a chain, not direct gear drive! I should think more before I type, sorry! :mad: :hammer:
