Abstract
Bore distortion from assembly of a jacketed cylinder liner and cylinder head is reduced by provision of a heavy uniform liner flange for evenly distributing the assembly stresses. Multiple drilled coolant passages between stud holes in the flange provide bore cooling and elongated manifold recesses distribute the coolant to non registering inlet holes in the cylinder head. Elongated seals with insulators and shields for support are also provided to seal the manifold connections at the head-liner interface.
