An engine that includes two intake and two exhaust valves for each cylinder is equipped for single valve constant lift engine braking. The exhaust valves may be actuated in a conventional manner via a rotating cam and a rocker arm coupled to a bridge that spans between the pair of exhaust valves. Engine braking is accomplished by actuating a brake actuator to hold one of the exhaust valves partially open, while the other of the two exhaust valves is allowed to close. Seating velocity of the non-braking valve is limited by including a second actuator button, namely a valve seating actuator, on the rocker arm that engages the valve bridge above the non-braking valve as it moves toward its closed position when the brake actuator is actuated.
