Abstract
A chain tensioner is in sliding contact with each cam chains in a pair of banks and each of cylinder heads of the pair of banks includes a tensioner lifter that abuts on a corresponding one of the two chain tensioners from a side opposite to the cam chains. Of the two tensioner lifters, a first tensioner lifter is disposed on a cylinder head of a first bank at a portion corresponding to an outside of two banks. A second tensioner lifter is disposed on a cylinder head of a second bank at a portion corresponding to an inside of the two banks. A distance between an upper end connection surface of the cylinder head of the first bank and the tensioner lifter is set to be smaller than a distance between an upper end connection surface of the cylinder head of the second bank and the other tensioner lifter.
