Abstract
A V-type internal combustion engine has a timing gear mechanism positioned in front of the cylinder block for driving the camshaft from the crankshaft. A coolant pump is secured to the cylinder block laterally offset from the crankshaft and adjacent one bank of cylinders. A first discharge passage leads from the coolant pump to the adjacent bank of cylinders and the second discharge passage is formed on a cover for the timing gear mechanism for supplying coolant to the remote bank of cylinders.
