3v setup
Question: so on the 3v setup, is it 1v intake and 2v exhaust or vice versa?

With all 3V engines it's 2 valves intake & 1 valve exhaust just like Mercedes's own 3V 5.0L and 5.5L V8 engines.

4v heads require DOHCs which is much more expensive than our SOHC 3v heads

Ferrari makes engines with 5 valve heads - 3 intake and 2 exhaust. Their engines also spin past 8,000 RPMs!
