A cylinder package (or kit) serves as the core of an internal combustion engine and primarily consists of a cylinder, piston, and cylinder head. Choosing the correct domes depends on the fuel you wish to use in your engine.
This is referred to as the top end of the engine. The bottom end of the engine includes the engine case halves and crankshaft.
Those looking for enhanced performance often replace the original cylinder package with an aftermarket package. These aftermarket cylinder packages are designed to enhance performance while maintaining reliability.
