That's funny, Honda somehow managed to make it work on the 3.5 OHC engine in the Odyssey.

With expensive and costly to design active engine mounts to smooth it out.

GM did have a concept engine that was supposed to have DOD, the XV12 V12 from the Cien. Did it have it or were they just saying that, I don't know but if it did then they know how to do it.

Honda's is an extension of the VTEC system. Instead of switching to another cam profile, it switches to a cylinder shutdown mode. GM Powertrain has detailed potential cylinder deactivation technology for OHC engines in industry conferences. Since this is supplier-sourced technology it's no secret.
