Cylinder Block and Bedplate

DESCRIPTION





Fig. 3

The cast iron cylinder block is a two-piece assembly, encompassing the cylinder block and bedplate. The bedplate incorporates the main bearing caps and bolts to the cylinder block. This design offers a much stronger lower end and increased cylinder block rigidity. The rear oil seal retainer is integral with the block. The bedplate and block are serviced as an assembly.
