Some 1960's Commer truck's used a 3 cylinder opposed piston 2 stroke supercharged diesel, that had a single crankshaft at 90 degree's to the cylinder's and below them, the piston's had conrod's connected to rocker arm's that had another set of conrod's connecting to the crankshaft !
Aye, Good old boys would tell storys of Commers running backwards .. Probably same engine.

i have no idea what they are
MTU is a Detroit V16 with 12 turbo's ... I have a VID somewhere.
