The short-block is the central dynamic element of the combustion engine. Its primary function is to transform a linear movement into a rotating movement in order to exploit the thrust generated by an explosion to rotate a shaft. Inside the short-block are all the necessary elements to carry out this function, namely the crankshaft, the connecting rods, the supports, the bearings and the pistons. All the remaining components of the engine are connected to the short-block: oil pump, water pump, counter-shafts, alternator etc …this makes it the true heart of the complete engine.
The refined manufacturing and care with the use of good materials and production tolerances generate what we call the quality of the product. The use of original components handled by specialists is imperative when considering the high temperatures and the great amount of mechanical force to which the short-block is exposed. Quality is crucial to ensure long-lasting and reliable engine performance.

The engine head, also called cylinder head, plays an essential role in the exploitation of the engine gas in the combustion chamber, most of all for the two-stroke engines. Made of cast iron or aluminium, it basically consists of a lid fixed on the short-block by means of screws. The head covers the cylinders in the upper part, thus ensuring the right compression ratio, preventing the internal gas from escaping.
Symptoms of the cylinder head failure. There are many signs of imminent failure of the engine head: water in the engine oil, high consumption of engine coolant, oil in the cooling system expansion tank, difficulty in starting the cylinders during the engine ignition phase, white smoke coming from the exhaust of the engine at startup. Causes for wear and damage to the cylinder head. Malfunction of the cooling system leading to the burning of the gasket between the cylinder head and the block; cracks and

We can say that today as never before life is movement. The engine is undoubtedly one of the most successful expressions to give man the possibility of moving around a world that is going faster and faster. From a strictly technical point of view, the first internal-combustion engine can be considered a set of components whose function is to convert a source of chemical energy into kinetic energy. We could venture a comparison by saying that the engine – like the human body – needs good functioning and perfect synchrony between its parts in order to guarantee maximum efficiency. The right care and maintenance are key to the best performance and prolonging the life of your engine.
