Not many drivers pay attention to the engine long block in their cars. This one is a sub-assembly in the engine, an assembly that consists of several parts. Unlike the short block engine, it's more complete because it already contains the cylinder heads. Because of this, the long block is a lot more expensive than the short block. Good thing, though, that it requires less work when you're trying to replace its components. As a superset of the engine short block, the engine long block contains the pistons, piston crank, water and oil pan, and flywheel. Aside from that, it has the all-important cylinder heads with all the gaskets included. To function effectively, most long blocks also have valves, springs, valve guides and seats, valve locks, manifolds, camshaft, timing gears, and valve keepers. Now, when assembling your engine long block, replacing the components may also be needed. In most instances, swapping parts from the original long block is necessary to ensure that it'll function properly.
