With higher performance.

These valves would be the same crescent shape as the original valve, but would weigh less. They would also have a different driving mechanism than originally.

The mechanism would cause the valve shaft to rotate 135 degrees at a time, which would mean that the gases can enter and exit the combustion chamber much more easily, and the valves would also not rotate during the combustion stroke, which will reduce stress and wear.

The new valve also features hollow cavities which make it lighter, and improves heat dissipation.
