Abstract: A gauge comprising an elongate rod and a head. The rod has an elongate axis. The head has a transverse dimension perpendicular to the elongate axis of the rod. The gauge has an insertion configuration and an inspection configuration, wherein the transverse dimension of the head is greater in the inspection configuration than in the insertion configuration. The head comprises two head portions each with a longitudinally-extending outer surface and a longitudinally-extending inner surface and, in the insertion configuration, the inner surfaces of the head portions are at least partly in abutment with each other. The gauge can be used in a method of measuring an internal dimension of a bore within a component.

Abstract: An engine assembly may include a first exhaust valve lift assembly, a first exhaust valve, and a first camshaft. The first exhaust valve lift assembly may be operable in first and second operating modes. The first exhaust valve may be engaged with the first exhaust valve lift assembly and may be in communication with an engine combustion chamber. The first camshaft may include a first exhaust lobe engaged with the first exhaust valve lift assembly and defining a profile including a first exhaust region and a first exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) region. The first exhaust valve may remain closed when the first EGR region engages the first exhaust valve lift assembly during the first operating mode and may be opened when the first EGR region engages the first exhaust valve lift assembly during the second operating mode to provide exhaust gas flow into the combustion chamber during an intake stroke.
