You can still clearly distinguish at flank the rythmic push/lift of the valves when the cam does its full turn.:hmm:
Not to nit-pick, but you do know Fairbanks Morse Opposed Piston engines don't have valves right? They just have ports that open when the piston moves back far enough to expose them. The lack of a valvetrain (coupled with forced induction) is what makes these 2-strokes so efficient.



As for the clattering sound, I'm not sure what actually causes it...
