The question is not answered because "dynamic cylinder deactivation" has not yet been invented, so no one could answer it. But no answer does not mean "dynamic cylinder deactivation" could not been invented.

"Dynamic cylinder deactivation" is absolutely a great idea toward engine fuel conversion efficiency. If there's a great need for such an advanced technology, it will be invented soon. Detroit would like to see such invention. Please pay attention to Convergence 2008 held in Detroit on October, 20--22, 2008. Something might happen there.

It would probably be more work than its worth to retrofit an engine for VDE but it is not impossible. It would be a lot easier on a pushrod engine to retrofit than a ohc engine. You would have to account for oil control and flow. GM started using multiple cylinder shutdown in the 80's caddy'shttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable_displacement

What does cylinder deactivation system means on a 2008 Honda Accord v6?

Think of the way you drive your car. Unless there's a number painted on the side and you crawl in through the window, not all your driving is done at maximum speed. Wouldn't it be nice if, instead of having to use a big engine to drive slow, you could have a small engine for around town and a big one for the highway? Cylinder deactivation is a way to kinda do that. When the car is going slow enough that fewer than six cylinders are needed, the car stops supplying fuel and spark to some of them.

What does the cylinder do on a car?

The gas is shot into the cylinder where it is compressed, then ignited. This causes the cylinder to move up and down within the cylinder block. As the cylinders move they turn the drive shaft which then provides power to the car.
