The engine has one of a cylinder head and a head gasket with a surface configured to mate with the block deck face, the surface having a tab sized to be received by the slot to form a cooling passage therebetween. An engine has a cylinder block with a block deck face defining a first cylinder and a second cylinder separated by an interbore region. The block is independent of a cylinder liner. The block forms a cooling jacket with a fluid passage surrounding the first and second cylinders and an open channel extending across the interbore region and intersecting the block deck face.
