IS THE Mitsubishi Magna 3.5-litre V6 a free-spinning design or is it good night to the engine if you break a timing belt?

MITSUBISHI says: ``With larger bores (90-plus mm), compression ratios around the 9:1 mark and large diameter valves, it is virtually impossible to design an engine that does not have valve/piston contact when a cam belt fails. The level of contact is dependent upon the position in which the cam stops''. The answer is that it's probably good night engine if the belt breaks.
