V-4 Engine
The Magna's revolutionary V-4 engine design offers smoothness, reliability and outstanding performance. The design's 90-degree cylinder configuration provides perfect primary balance that virtually eliminates bothersome vibration and the need for an engine counterbalancer. Liquid cooling offers reliability and long engine life, while dual overhead camshafts and four-valve-per-cylinder technology are employed for high levels of performance.
Direct Actuation Valve Train
Rather than moving each valve via a rocker arm, the Magna's engine utilizes direct shim-under-bucket valve actuation. The system, while being more compact and lighter than a conventional rocker-arm setup, is highly reliable during high-rpm use and offers extended valve-adjustment intervals.
