“The carbureted, oversquare, 95.5 × 62.8mm, dohc four-valver uses a narrow 26-degree included valve angle for compactness.”

“Sorry, David, but I'm a little confused here, there was an implication that the set⟳ was a six-valver with two VP133's.

Either way, it smacks of something a cut⟳ above the crowd.”

“The three-valver harks back to the 5.5-liter V-12 that first appeared in the Maybach 57 in 2002.”

“The article begins by noting that “the small receiver is apt to be despised in these days of 7 and 8 -valve superhets, there is still a very wide field of application for the simple one-valver.”
