First they form a mold made out of sand... then they pour in the melted metal alloy... then they bore the holes for the piston, valves, water and oil... tapos.

The problem is that alloys are normally patented. The dies for the moulds in making IC's is a monopoly of Hitachi Metal Industries. Hitachi is the only company that supplies these metals for the IVC molds just as formerly, it was Germany who monopolized the LCD's that Korea broke into with a slight modification in making thier own LCD complnents.

Perhaps, we can do as Taiwan has bee doing which is buying all the scrap metal all around South East Asia at a price that the British Commonwealth could not undercut.

Mga machinery grade metals lang ating bilhin and create our own engine blocks... marami naman tayong magagaling na metalurgist na Pinoy.

Ang ating machinist are one of the best in the world if not the best... kaya lang nanduon sila sa Singapore, Japan, Australia, Taiwan, the US at iba pang mga developed countries.

Mayroon pa rin though tayong magagaling na precision machinist still here at madaming mga nakatiwangwang na mga kung anu-anong lathe machine around. May nakita nga akong machine shop na kumpleto sa Pque sa may Sucat road na puwedeng makagawa ng kahjit ano, malaki man o maliit... lying idle at sinusubakn ibentang scrap. Kung may pera lang ako'y binili ko na't nakalalaway ang mga computerize precision lathes doon talaga.
