Want this question answered?
to house the pistons
This is the diameter of the cylinder hole in the engine block for the pistons.
They are the hollowed out shapes/areas in the motor block, which the pistons move up and down through. The petrol is let into the cylinder, when piston pushes up, the petrol explodes and pushes the piston down. The bigger the cylinder the bigger to push, the more powerful the motor.
pistons in every engine are located in the block
the piston can push 1 block long

On the pistons, in the block. If they are bad, it's time for an engine rebuild.
The engine block is the lower portion of the engine that the cylinder heads mount to that houses the pistons,crankshaft ,oil pump etc . Basically ,the block has the cylinders for the pistons...

I'm sorry, the 16 valve head will not work on the 8 valve short block. The piston crowns are cut differently so replacement of pistons would be necessary. It is my understanding though, that it COULD be done if the pistons were replaced. I have never attempted this, but by looking through the parts catalog, it seems that this is feasable.
The cylinder block houses the pistons and valves. It's located in the middle of the engine and are made from cast iron or aluminum.
There is an engine block which houses all the moving parts of an internal combustion engine, and a cylinder which is a part of that block, the cylinder is where the piston moves inside and where combustion takes place.
