Tech/Engineering - Automotive / Cars & Trucks / collection cars | | English term or phrase: gear driven two valve motor | Bonjour,
je traduis un texte parlant de voitures de collection. À un moment, on voit une Mercedes Benz 150 Sport Roadster de 1935. Cette voiture est équipée d'un "gear driven two valve motor". Sauriez-vous comment traduire ce terme ?
"This is a 1.5 litre, overhead cam shaft, which was pretty high tech technology back in the 1930’s. And gear driven, two valve motor, so pretty simple and that cast iron engine, cast iron cylinder head." |
