Yes, a 22R lazor block with flat top pistons can work with a 22R cylinder head that originally came from a dome top piston block, but there are important considerations. The compression ratios and combustion chamber shapes differ between flat top and dome top pistons, which can affect engine performance and efficiency. It's crucial to check for proper clearances and compatibility, as well as to consider tuning adjustments to optimize engine performance after the swap.
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

To install pistons in a 351 Windsor engine, first ensure the engine block is clean and prepared. Lubricate the piston rings and use a ring compressor to carefully slide the piston into the cylinder, aligning it with the crankshaft. Gently tap the piston into place using a soft mallet, ensuring it's seated properly at the bottom of the cylinder. Finally, install the connecting rod and secure it with the appropriate bolts, following the manufacturer’s torque specifications.
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.
