Oh wow. Do you have any details on how they accomplished this?
There are plenty of big, wet sleeved, diesel engines out there now (in
fact the Cummins motor in the Dodge Ram stands out because it is not
wet sleeved). To the best of my knowledge the only issue was with
cavitation, and not the bearings.
I'd love to read up more on this, especially in light of my possibly
blown head gasket :-D
