In a piston engine, the cylinder head sits above the cylinders, [1] forming the roof of the combustion chamber. In sidevalve engines the head is a simple plate of metal containing the spark plugs and possibly heat dissipation fins .
VR5 and VR6 engines are very compact and light, having a narrow V angle which allows a single cylinder block and cylinder head. These engines use a single cylinder head so are technically a straight engine with the name "VR" coming from the combination of German words “Verkürzt” and “Reihenmotor” meaning “shortened inline engine”.

The 1.8 L CVH was only used in the European Ford Sierra. Bore is the same 80 mm (3.15 in) as the 1.6 L CVH, but a different crankshaft with a stroke of 88 mm (3.46 in) raises displacement to 1,769 cc (108.0 cu in). The cylinder head is equipped with hydraulic roller camshaft followers to reduce noise.
The engine has displacement of 1.8 L; 109.7 cu in (1,798 cc) with a bore of 3.38 in (86 mm) and a stroke of 3.05 in (77 mm). [1] The compression ratio is 10.5:1. [1] The 1.8L DOHC inline 4-cylinder engine served as the standard engine in the Dodge Caliber SE and SXT trim for the 2007–2009 model years. Applications:
It has four valves per cylinder, utilizes dual-overhead cams design, and features variable valve timing on the exhaust cam, a first for GM inline engines. When introduced, this engine's power was 270 hp (201 kW) at 6,000 rpm and torque was 275 lb⋅ft (373 N⋅m) at 3,600 rpm. 2003 saw a slight bump in power to 275 hp (205 kW), while torque was ...

De Dion-Bouton engine with monobloc cylinder heads, but cylinders separate from crankcase c. 1905 [1]. A monobloc or en bloc engine is an internal-combustion piston engine some of whose major components (such as cylinder head, cylinder block, or crankcase) are formed, usually by casting, as a single integral unit, rather than being assembled later.
