Westerbeke W 52 - a Perkins 4.135?

[margie]

On good authority I've been told that the Westerbeke W52 is a Perkins 4.135. Looking into the possibility after reading a previous thread I located a supplier to Westerbeke who sources from manufacturers globally. He believes that the W52 was licensed (as was the Mazda S2) from Perkins and that they are the same block. He also affirmed that he can get parts.

So being the doubting Thomas that I am, I'm taking a 'show me' stance. I've forward him a wish list. I'll let y'all know whether he comes through.

Here's a parts manual / exploded view of the Westerbeke W52:
