Wow! I'd read something about "brazed cylinder liners" before they
went to aluminum blocks but didn't know about a cylinder "sub
assembly" Among my "show and tell" items which I drag out for
interested visitors is one of the original Crosley "COBRA" (co-bra
= copper-brazed) engine blocks. To most people's amusement, it's
galvanized like a bucket and sounds about like one when you thump it.
"Auto Quarterly" did a story on the concept and the designer once .
. .forgot who . . . wonder if there are any "brazed" motors being
built today?
