Baudouin 4M10G Cylinder Block 1004708401 Marine Diesel Parts

Model: 4M10G110 / 4M10G70 / 4M10G88

Part Number: 1004708401

Brands: Baudouin

Engine Model: 4M10G70, 4M10G88, 4M10G110

Engine Type: Marine and industrial diesel

Scope of application: marine propulsion, marine auxiliary, generator sets, industrial power units

The block as the reference for every dimension

Every dimension in an engine is referenced to the block. It holds the crankshaft in its main saddles, supports the liners, provides the deck for the head and contains the coolant and oil galleries. Part 1004708401 is the cylinder block shared by the Baudouin 4M10G70, 4M10G88 and 4M10G110 engines, used in marine propulsion, auxiliary and industrial generator applications.

Because the block sets the geometry, it also sets the quality ceiling of a rebuild. A block with a warped deck or misaligned main bores destroys new bearings and gaskets regardless of how carefully everything else is assembled.

One block across three ratings

The three 4M10G ratings share this casting, which makes spare planning straightforward for operators running mixed fleets. Confirm the engine plate and the old block number before ordering: early and late production batches can differ in engine mount pads and in the front cover pattern.

What we check

Blocks are stripped, cleaned and measured before being offered. The checks are dimensional and pressure based, and the measurements can be supplied with the shipment.

  • Deck flatness across both axes.
  • Main bore alignment verified with a line bore gauge.
  • Liner bore condition, including roundness and pitting.
  • Camshaft bore alignment checked for free rotation.
  • Pressure test of water jacket and oil galleries.

Blocks ship cleaned with machined faces oiled and protected. Liners, cam bearings and gallery plugs can be fitted before crating on request.

When replacement beats repair

A deck machined more than once may fall below minimum height, and a crack through a main saddle cannot be welded reliably because welding distorts bore alignment.

  • Cracks between main saddles or into a liner bore
  • Deck below the manufacturer minimum
  • Liner bores eroded by cavitation
  • Cam bores worn oval so the cam binds
  • Main caps that no longer align
  • Water jacket corrosion breaking into a cylinder

A pressure test plus a line bore check settles the question in most cases.

Assembly sequence

  1. Brush every oil gallery and refit all gallery plugs with sealant.
  2. Fit main bearings, check clearances with plastigauge and confirm free rotation.
  3. Set liner protrusion with a dial gauge and keep it consistent.
  4. Check camshaft end float after fitting the thrust plate.
  5. Prime the oil system and confirm pressure before the first start.
  6. Retorque the head and check coolant level after the first heat cycle.

Selecting the correct block

Match the casting number, front cover pattern and engine mount holes. Send photos of the old block from three angles with the engine plate and we will confirm the casting before loading.

Marine corrosion considerations

Marine engines are cooled by raw water through a heat exchanger, and the block sees more corrosive conditions than a road engine. Check the water jacket for corrosion around the liner seats and the core plugs, and replace core plugs that show rust through. A block that has been run with poor coolant chemistry is often beyond saving even when the bores look acceptable.

Common rebuild mistakes

The most common mistakes are fitting liners into a bore that was not cleaned properly, skipping the deck flatness check and reusing gallery plugs with old sealant. Each produces a failure soon after the engine returns to service.

Freight and crating

Blocks are bolted to a timber base, banded and marked with lifting points, with the deck shielded. Freight is charged on volume as well as weight, so tell us whether the block travels with other parts.

Protecting the block in service

Coolant quality prevents liner pitting, oil quality prevents bearing wear and healthy engine mounts prevent cracking. Replace a failed damper promptly and keep the heat exchanger clean so coolant temperature stays in range.

Preparing a block for a marine rebuild

Marine blocks often carry more corrosion than road blocks because of the raw water circuit and the humid engine room. Before assembly, inspect the core plugs and the water jacket for rust breakthrough, and replace every core plug that shows staining. A plug that fails at sea is far more serious than one that fails on land.

Clean the oil galleries thoroughly and check the mating face of the heat exchanger and oil cooler for pitting. Refit gallery plugs with the correct sealant and confirm that every one is present before the crank goes in, because a missing plug means no oil pressure at first start.

FAQ

Does the block include liners?

It is supplied bare by default. Liners, cam bearings and gallery plugs can be fitted on request.

Does it fit all 4M10G ratings?

Yes, 4M10G70, 4M10G88 and 4M10G110 share this casting.

Can a cracked saddle be repaired?

Not reliably. Welding distorts alignment and the crack returns.

What should I check on delivery?

Deck flatness, main bore alignment, liner bore roundness and the pressure test report.

Description

Baudouin Cylinder Block (1004708401). Every clearance in the engine is measured from this casting. That is why a replacement block is checked for deck flatness and main bore alignment before it is packed, and again when it arrives on site.

Ask for the casting number from the old block and compare it with the new one. Blocks from different revisions accept the same crankshaft and still refuse the brackets and front cover you already own.

Numbers beginning 1004 are numeric-series numbers used on later WP7 and WP8 production, where mounting detail changed without a change of nominal type.

Clean every oil gallery with brushes and confirm flow before assembly. Swarf left in a gallery destroys new bearings within minutes of the first start.

Ordering note. Inspection reports can be provided for castings and crankshafts on request, covering the measurements taken before packing.
