Enbloc Cylinder Casting Improves Engine Rigidity and Longevity
Enbloc cast cylinders offer far greater rigidity than single or paired cylinders and stay in positive alignment, preventing piston binding under twisting road stresses. Binding causes power loss and rapid bearing wear, increasing maintenance and shortening engine life. Wider needle valve aids easy starting, especially with seat controlled carburetors, as fuel feed is regulated when the engine is warmed. American designers monitor foreign trends, noting a Paris Salon display favoring long stroke motors.
