Hmmm.  Wouldn't your cam stick out of the current block dimensions by a foot
or two?  Actually, this would require that the cam surface for each valve
to be about 3 or 4 inches wide -- which means each valve has to be spaced that
far apart.  This would probably require a 4 cylinder engine to be the size
of an 8 cylinder.

Still an interesting idea though!
