2. Crossflow cylinder head - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crossflow_cylinder_head

   A crossflow head gives better performance than a Reverse-flow cylinder head (though not as good as a uniflow), but the popular explanation put forward for this — that the gases do not have to change direction and hence are moved into and out of the cylinder more efficiently — is a simplification since there is no continuous flow because of valve opening and closing.

   The crossflow cylinder heads are made from a cast iron alloy, and the five-bearing camshaft is constructed from a case-hardened steel alloy. Although the engine is often described as a twinned Volvo B18 four-cylinder, only some components of the valve train are interchangeable between the two engines.
