Interesting debate : what is "the engine" of a car ?
...For me an engine, whether it is a piston engine, a turbine or a steam machine, is where the power comes from. In my opinion, the flywheel or transmission are not "the engine", but rather driven by the engine...
The engine (in my view) is the engine block, where the cylinders are and where the combustion takes place.
Don't you think it's a reasonable concept ?
