An engine short block, (also referred to as a short engine), is a partially assembled engine. It includes the engine block, crankshaft, connecting rods and pistons, but does not include the cylinder head, camshaft and other parts that attach to it. Short blocks are often used as a replacement for damaged or worn out engines, allowing for a quicker and more affordable repair than replacing the entire engine.
Top Tip...
When it comes to repowering your machine with a new engine, or repairing the engine with a short block, please do not guess or assume that something will suit your application just because it looks the same, or looks like it will fit. Choosing the wrong engine, short block, or part, can result in poor running, premature failures, or may just not work/fit full stop! If there is any doubt, contact us first. We will take as much information as you can supply us with, but we will need a minimum of the model, spec/type and serial/code numbers from your engine and ideally, the intended application. Equipped with this information, our Technical Support Team can help identify the available options for you.
