Did they do a 5 bearing engine in a diesel?

Just looking around, in the book there is a supplement for the 5 bearing petrol but nothing for the diesel, here's a pic of the 3 bearing diesel

Well if the photo is correct it looks just like mine and it's a 3 bearing crank. Dam was going to fabricate a small turbo to it but its not going to happen now. Cheers guys

unless you find another engine, a 2,5 tdi or old defender non turbo to drop in, looks that way. Shame you cant swap the bottom half from a petrol onto your diesel head :wink:
