IIRC (waiting for Dutra's article to load) yep, I was right- the Al 225 isn't a "wet sleeve" design. Its got free-standing aluminum bores, an open deck head, and *dry* liners inside the freestanding bores, just like almost all modern aluminum engines do. Making it a "parent bore" engine.


Oh! Never heard the term. But I guess I get to go sit in the corner for having failed to memorise Dutra's article ;-)

Nah, its just the photo of the top of one bore showing the liner and the casting that I was remembering :-)
