Description
Mitsubishi 4D56U / 4D56HP 2.5L Diesel 16V Bare Engine / Long Block – Complete Head & Block Assembly
This 4D56U / 4D56HP bare engine is a complete long block core built to OEM standards for Mitsubishi vehicles. It includes the complete cylinder head assembly (valves, springs, camshafts, rocker arms) and the complete cylinder block assembly (pistons, rings, crankshaft, connecting rods). It is supplied without the valve cover, timing cover & timing belt, oil pan, and all external accessories – exactly as required for a cost‑effective rebuild where those components are transferred from your original engine.
The 4D56U and 4D56HP are the high‑power 16‑valve versions of the legendary 4D56 diesel family, featuring a DOHC 16‑valve cylinder head and turbocharging for significantly improved performance over the older 8‑valve variants.
