Electric valve actuators are an old idea. Will it ever be viable? I don't know but for me it evokes memories of the Wankel engine.

Fireball 413 or something like that. Got it in 88 for a 455 Olds. I still have the cam and engine.
Here it is...

I had a turbocharged Felix Wankel engine. It was unreliable as they come but it sure would spin up.

Why would it remind you of a Wankel ( Rotary ) motor?

Funny thing is, I still have that engine and it runs. Perhaps we are overthinking these boat engines.
