Detailed Description

Melling CSL180 cylinder liner is intended for rebuilders who need a replacement sleeve with defined dimensions and consistent material quality. The liner measures 6.5 inches long, 0.094 inch thick, and is sized with a 4.19-inch outside diameter and 3.97-inch inside diameter. Its universal fit and standard replacement grade make it suitable for stock engine rebuilds across a wide range of Ford, Lincoln, Mercury, and Oldsmobile engines.

Melling positions this cylinder liner line as a practical option for both stock replacement and performance-oriented rebuild needs, with availability in multiple liner styles across the product family.

What It Helps Address

• Worn or damaged cylinder sleeve surfaces during rebuilds
• Oversize or out-of-spec cylinder wall repair needs
• Restoration work requiring a standard replacement liner
• Engine machining jobs that call for a universal sleeve dimension

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify bore dimensions, liner outside diameter, and liner inside diameter before machining or installation. Because this is a universal cylinder liner, final fit depends on the engine block preparation and machine work performed during the rebuild. Confirm application details against the listed fitment before ordering CSL180.
