Unusual for them to let the design run off the side?

Classic graphics, where else would the valves be!

The Ford V8 engines of that era had a side valve configuration with the valves in the engine block itself. I suppose Buick saw themselves as innovators with the overhead valve system and were proved right when side valve engines died out after the war.....History lesson over!
