The camless engine idea is incredible. You save the valvetrain actuation assembly weight, although the electronics have some weight as well, just not so much. Also, the friction losses are gone. It will take 0 HP to turn the valve train now, instead of a mechanical actuation. Mileage, performance, and hopefully, reliability should increase.
