CYLINDER BLOCK
The deep skirt cast aluminum cylinder block is an in-line configuration. Thin
wall, interference fit cast iron liners provide optimum weight, cylinder bore
roundness and robustness. The low volume coolant jacket gives good warmup
times. The cylinder block is a cross flow design with the coolant inlet to
the cylinder head on the exhaust side and the coolant outlet from the
cylinder head on the air inlet side.
Oil from the cylinder head drains back to the oil pan through open
apertures; one located at the front of the cylinder block and one at the rear
of the cylinder block between the timing chain and the lower timing chain
cover.
A cast aluminum alloy, structural windage tray is bolted to the bottom of the
cylinder block to further improve the cylinder block stiffness, minimize
Noise, Vibration and Harshness (NVH) and help reduce oil foaming.
Various machining ports in the cylinder block are sealed with cup plugs and
threaded plugs. Removal of these is not necessary for service procedures.
In cold climate markets a block heater is fitted to the cylinder block. The
heater is screwed into a threaded bore on the cylinder block, which is
normally sealed with a threaded plug.
