Jamie is working on the Cross, it's a unique little 4 stroke. The intake valve is atmospheric, the exhaust is operated by a "pullrod". There's a rocker arm under the cam that pulls the valve open, the spring on the rod returns it and closed the valve. The valves are in a cage that seals at the top of the combustion chamber with a tapered seat.

The cross has new rings and a valve job and it runs good. Ran it Christmas eve for about 3 hours. I pulled up a chair and kept adding gas. JB set the timing gears for right hand rotation. I had to make a exhaust arm tp pull down on valve.
