SERIES 60 SERVICE MANUAL 1.1 CYLINDER BLOCK AND CYLINDER LINER The cylinder block is the basic engine structure, establishing and maintaining the alignment of all engine working parts. In the Series 60 Engine, the cylinder bores are not an integral part of the block casting, but are in the form of replaceable, wet type cylinder liners. See Figure 1-1. Flanges at the liner upper ends seat in counterbores in the block deck, and project slightly above the deck to compress the head gasket for a good compression seal. Below the water jacket the lower end of the cylinder liner has two D-shaped seal rings and a lipped crevice seal to prevent leakage between the water jacket and crankcase. 1.
