yep and a very strong engine too, its oldschool pushrod technolgy and has a VE pump made by Bosch.

The turbo is extra loud on this truck, you can hear the thing spool up from miles away. The only off beat part is that it runs a timing belt.

The motor might be made by Perkins ( the older ones were ) . Perkins makes many industrial engines for Fork lifts / generators / farm tractors and such.
