By Willard Marine Inc. (Continued from page 30) oil on the outside of the engine have disappeared.

The inlet air receiver was completely incorporated into the engine block casting. "Integration of the lubricating oil and water channels in the castings result in a compact design; leaks are virtually eliminated," said Kees van Son, design manager,

Stork-Wartsila.

The engine block was given a flat top in order to provide optimal support of the cylinder liners. At the fuel pump locations, attention was paid to the optimal transmission of forces from the pumps to the camshaft bearings. The block has separate engine feet, allowing for easy installation in vari- ous configurations.

The engine has flanged liners with tangential cooling water flow. The liner is supported sym- metrically at the top by the cylinder block and it is sized so that the temperature on the inner wall remains high enough to prevent low temperature corrosion and low enough to ensure good lubrica- tion.
