thanks man, i'd heard about this but couldn't find any concrete info on the net for a while. now we don't have to feel so bad about ford's own GT kinda keeping up with this car for half the price. This should put it in its own little world.

Solid lifters!

Will the N/A'd engine still be available?

Well I guess they figure one of two things. S7 owners wont mind regular valve adjustments and the S7s on the street probably wont see a huge number of miles.

Personally I'd have gone with titanium valves and retainers, beehive valve springs and some sorta rev kit (I assume the S7's engine uses some sort of shaft mounted rocker arrangement) this would've produced a nice high revving hydraulicly cammed engine.
