Hi! What inline 4 naturally aspirated engines 1.6L and above have aluminum cylinder blocks?
I know the Ford Sigma 1.7 and Rover K-series are alu. block. What other engines?

Suzuki car engines, and the 4x4 gearbox fits.

Does it have to be a car engine?

I'm guessing most bike engines are Aluminium blocks and heads, purely for the weight.

What do you want to fit the engine into?
