Been wanting to ask this question a while but thought it a bit dumb.. but hey ho what the hell!!

what is the actual difference when a advert states the engine is a long or short engine.

Is it to do with having or not having the ancillaries and inlet?

there done now!!! let the flaming begin... or the sensible answer which ever you feel fit to give...

I think short is block and it's contents, and long is including the heads?

Short block = less heads
Long block = with heads

i think its pretty much as you say bud. short block will be just block without heads and long would be with inlet and ancillaries etc. someone will be along to flame you shortly tho
