engine blocks
Cast metal hearts
Engine blocks are the main structural components of internal combustion engines—the heavy metal castings that house the cylinders, crankshaft, and other core parts.
The block forms the engine's foundation, with everything else bolting to or fitting inside it.
A cracked engine block usually means the engine is beyond economical repair.
The mechanic found corrosion in the engine block.
