The 3 bearing gas engine is not particularly weak in standard trim and
is well worth rebuilding. It is less suited to the power increasing
modifications you might be tempted to do when in full shipfitting mode.
The 5 bearing change was made to accomodate upgrading the diesel engine.

Yes settle back with your favorit beverage and leave the old girl in
