[Vwdiesel] Dodge Ram TD?

Scott was talking about a Dodge Ram mini-truck, not a Ram fullsize.

Just so everyone knows, the engine in the mini-ram was a 2.3L 
turbodiesel, with twin counter rotating balance shafts.  Unique
in that regard I believe for small 80's diesels.  It was made by
Mitsubishi, and saw service in Ram's, Mitsu's, and 86-87 Ford Rangers.
Quite a nice engine by all accounts.
