[Land-speed] How About - - No Cam at all?

[Dick J]

The use of a valve train consisting of camshaft, lifters, pushrods, rockers and heavy springs is really a fairly primitive way to open and close valves, and is certainly a performance limiter.  It seems like with the current development of electronic fuel injection, the same elctronics could be applied to opening anc closing valves.  Sort of a solonoid, operated by the same kind of ECU as EFI, in place of the entire valve train.  Any thoughts?
