Engine parts for General motors

The basis of an engine is a cylinder block with a crank group. This set is often called a short block. A crank mechanism is a structurally complex assembly containing movable and fixed elements. The crank group includes a crankshaft with sliding bearings, piston rods, pistons, and rings. All this is housed in a cylinder block with a crankcase. The cylinders contain liners, the most loaded parts of the engine. The cylinders are closed from above by the cylinder head. The cylinder head contains camshafts, valves, rockers, pushrods, hydraulic compensators, and other parts of the timing system. Internal combustion engine parts include covers, gaskets, oil seals, and components of timing drive, which may include rollers, tensioners, gears, pulleys, chains, belts, etc. And also the manifolds of the intake and exhaust systems and parts of attachments located directly on the engine.
