Abstract
A cylinder head for a marine engine has an axially elongated camshaft, cam lobes that are axially spaced apart from each other along the camshaft, and valves that control one of a flow of intake air for combustion in the marine engine or a flow of exhaust gas from the marine engine. The cam lobes actuate the valves upon rotation of the camshaft. Each cam lobe comprises first and second cam lobe sections that are axially spaced apart from each other along the camshaft.
