An overhead valve engine, abbreviated (OHV) and sometimes called a pushrod engine, is a piston engine whose valves are located in the cylinder head above the combustion chamber. This contrasts with flathead (or "sidevalve") engines , where the valves were located below the combustion chamber in the engine block .
The engine's small size was dictated by Japan's kei car rules which offered special status to vehicles with engines displacing less than 360 cc (22 cu in). Mazda's tiny OHV was the only four-cylinder in the class in the 1960s, but was outperformed by 2-stroke and I3 powerplants from other companies.
The Opel OHV family (also known as the Kadett engine and Viva engine after its most famous applications) is a pushrod inline-four engine. It was the first all-new engine developed by Opel of Germany after World War II and was released in 1962. Versions were in use through 1993.

By 1952 Ford had new, 215 cu in (3.5 L) OHV 6-cylinder engine and Lincoln had a 317 cu in (5.2 L) OHV V8. [1] The company had designed the Y-block for a 1953 introduction, but a shortage of nickel due to the Korean War 's needs prevented the company from manufacturing the engine in sufficient quantities, [ 2 ] delaying it until 1954.
On some OHV engines in the 1960s, such as the Ford Taunus V4 engine and Opel CIH engine, the tappet adjustment was done by setting the height of the rocker pivot point (rather than the typical method of a rocker-end adjustment screw). On the 1965-1970 versions of the Opel CIH engine with solid tappets, the tappet adjustment was conducted with ...
The Toyota Y engine is a series of overhead valve straight-four petrol engines manufactured by Toyota from 1982 through 1996. The Y engine has mostly been used in commercial and off-road vehicles. The valve arrangement from the Toyota K engine is interchangeable with this engine. Translated from Japanese Wiki ja:トヨタ・Y型エンジン
