The Caterpillar 221-4482 cylinder block assembly is a core structural component for Caterpillar C7, C9, and C7.2 series diesel engines. This cylinder block group (GP) serves as the foundation for the engine's rotating assembly, housing the crankshaft, connecting rods, and pistons within its six inline cylinders. The casting features integrated coolant passages, oil galleries, and main bearing caps designed to withstand high combustion pressures and thermal loads typical of heavy-duty construction and industrial applications. This assembly is identified by serial number range KHX1-UP and is a direct replacement for engine arrangements including 227-5946, 236-4284, 270-4212, 270-4213, 387-8535, and 387-8536. It is compatible with a range of Caterpillar machinery including 324D, 325D, 328D, 329D, M325D, and 325DL hydraulic excavators, as well as 950H, 962H, 966D, 966E, and 966F wheel loaders. The component is available in both remanufactured and unused new conditions, meeting OEM specifications for fit, form, and function.
