2. Chevrolet small-block engine (first- and second-generation)

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chevrolet_small-block...

   It has a 4.125-inch (104.8 mm) bore and a 3.750-inch (95.25 mm) stroke. The 400 differed from other small-blocks in that the cylinders were siamesed and therefore required 'steam' holes in the block, head gaskets, and heads to help alleviate 'hot

3. Head gasket - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Head_gasket

   In an internal combustion engine, a head gasket provides the seal between the engine block and cylinder head(s). Its purpose is to seal the combustion gases within the cylinders and to avoid coolant or engine oil leaking into the cylinders. [1] Leaks in the head gasket can cause poor engine running and/or overheating.

5. Siamesed cylinders - Wikipedia

   The advantage is that the engine block will be reduced in size, or the bore can be increased in size. The disadvantage is a higher temperature between two cylinders, requiring a stronger engine block to avoid distortion of the metal, and better gasket sealing between the two bores.

6. Main bearing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_bearing

   The lower half of the main bearings are typically held in place by 'bearing caps' which are secured to the engine block using bolts. The basic arrangement is for each bearing cap to have two bolts, but some engines may have four or six bolts per bearing cap (often referred to as "four-bolt mains" or "six-bolt mains" engines).

7. General Motors LS-based small-block engine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_Motors_LS-based...

   The new logo formally adopts the Small Block name for the engines. The fifth generation of the iconic GM small block engine family features the same cam-in-block architecture and 4.4 in (110 mm) bore centers (the distance between the centers of each cylinder) that were born with the original small block in 1954.
