    Abstract: An assembly for controlling a flow of exhaust gas from an engine includes a blowdown manifold and a scavenge manifold adapted to be coupled to the engine for receiving the exhaust gas. The assembly also includes a valve system including a blowdown pipe coupled to the blowdown manifold, a scavenge pipe coupled to the scavenge manifold, a scavenge valve member coupled to the scavenge pipe and disposed within the scavenge passage, and at least one actuator operably coupled to the scavenge valve member. The assembly further includes a turbocharger coupled to the blowdown pipe, with the turbocharger including a turbine housing defining a turbine housing interior. The scavenge valve member of the valve system is disposed outside of the turbine housing interior.

    Abstract: A variable compression connecting rod system (10) located in an internal combustion engine (12) and a method of assembly can include a connecting rod (28) mountable to a piston pin (26) having a first longitudinal axis at one end and 5 mountable to a crankpin (22) having a second longitudinal axis at a second end portion (36). A hydraulically actuated eccentric rotor (52) rotatable about one of the first and second longitudinal axis. The eccentric rotor (52) including first and second vanes (54a, 54b) for driving the rotor between first and second angular positions in response to fluid pressure acting on the first and second vanes. The eccentric rotor 10 (52) having an eccentric surface area with different radial distances (80, 82) movable into alignment with a longitudinal axis of the connecting rod (28) for varying a longitudinal length of the connecting rod (28) between the first and second longitudinal axis.
