Zusammenfassung:Various methods and systems are provided for varying valve timing in a V-engine. In one embodiment, a method for an engine comprises pivoting a first cam follower for a first cylinder of a first bank and a second cam follower for a second cylinder of a second bank about a rotatable pivot shaft, driving the first cam follower and the second cam follower with a camshaft to operate a respective first valve of the first cylinder and a second valve of the second cylinder, and rotating the pivot shaft to vary a valve timing of the first cylinder and the second cylinder. cl Cc~J el 6 -v LL
