Abstract
A cylinder head and induction passage arrangement for a three intake valve internal combustion engine wherein the center intake passage and its porting arrangement is directed so as to augment the tumble action caused by the side valve seats and their intake passages. The construction also provides that the center intake valve will be disposed so that there will be no shrouded area in the path of flame from the spark plug so as to ensure complete combustion. The cylinder head is made in such a way that the same cylinder head may be used for either bank of an engine having angularly inclined cylinder banks through the machining of only one face thereof.
