The complex gear-drive arrangement for the camshafts at the rear of the 24-cylinder Duesenberg. The pinion on the crankshaft had 17 teeth, the intermediate gears had 74 teeth, and the camshaft gears had 34 teeth. The center intermediate gear engaged an idler gear that had 45 teeth. The gearing drove the camshafts at half engine speed.
