Erik, out of curiosity, did you talk to Ken about the problem ?  I don't
know what the timeline was for the 6-cyl, but I know for a while he was
having a hard time finding decent tappets for both the 6 and 4.  The current
4-cyl solution is fairly exotic, tappet bore liners to allow usage of
tappets from a GT-40 (as I recall).
