An overhead cam engine having a drive train including a crankshaft rotatably disposed within a crankcase and driven by a piston-connecting rod assembly. The crankshaft drives a timing shaft at half the speed of the crankshaft through a gear set within in the crankcase. The timing shaft is parallel to the crankshaft, and has an end extending externally of the crankcase with a timing pulley mounted thereon. The timing pulley is drivingly attached through an external timing belt to a camshaft pulley mounted on an end of a camshaft which extends externally of the cylinder head. The camshaft has a pair of cam lobes mounted thereon inside the cylinder head for actuating intake and exhaust valves within the cylinder head.
