"The engine is built on a stiff aluminium block with cast-in iron liners and cross-bolted main bearing caps".

Mi intento (seguramente errado):

"El motor está construído sobre un sólido bloque de aluminio con camisas de hierro encastradas y..."

Escucho sugerencias.
Muchas gracias a todos.

agree  Darío Orlando Fernández: no es usual ni necesario indicar "principal"
2 hrs
  -> gracias. lo tomaré en cuenta

agree  Hector Aires: En mi modesta opinión (he,he, ¿un ingeniero modesto?, no conozco ninguno) agrí con Darío, no hace falta lo de principal, y es posible que cada tapa tenga 4 pernos, tal vez le llamen cruzados a eso. Una figurita sería lo ideal. Saludetes
