The config for the "W" engines from VW are DOHC... It just looks really weird...

Yes - a Neon at 8000 RPM. Ok, a minor joke. No - another type of automobile engine. It was massed produced & ran very well. Hint: go back in history around 70 years. Ron (living in history).

Flat Head engines, or Side Valve engines.... I think that's what they call them... AMC made them in the Rambler

That would be a steam engine. did not have any camshafts.persay.
the 2 I was thinking of were indeed: 1. Rotary 2. 2 stroke, and yes its an auto engine in a vauxhall and I think there were some little three wheelers by Citreon and another UK company.

the flat head did have a camshaft, geared to the crank, connected straight to the valves. smart design, few moving parts...including the car itself

Man, I'm all messed up tonight... I can't believe that I didn't know the steam engine!!! That worked on the same basic way as a 2 stroke right... I don't mean with 4 phases in 4 strokes but with 4 phases in 2 strokes...

I guess over the years there have been many odd configurations that could be construed as "engines". No - I'm not thinking of the two cycle variety. Another hint: Think Jeep. Ron.

The motor is a gasoline fired internal combustion engine that was used in a number of automobiles for quite a few years on both sides of the Atlantic. Ron.
