PURPOSE:To increase the rear tilting freedom of a rear bank in a V-engine, by transmitting driving power from a crankshaft to a camshaft through an intermediate shaft. CONSTITUTION:Rotary motion of a crankshaft 40 is once transmitted to an intermediate shaft 66 arranged within a holding angle of each bank 32, 34, and then rotary motion of the intermediate shaft 66 is transmitted by a cam chain 78 to overhead camshafts 74a, 74b of the rear bank 34. Accordingly, the cam chain 78 never interferes with a clutch 84, and rear tilt freedom of the rear bank 34 can be increased. Further a protrusive amount of the clutch 84 to an engine side can be decreased, and an engine can be prevented from being formed to large size. |
