I would bet cost of production would be high on the list of reasons they were the never put production. 
Here's an interesting article.

Agreed!  If nothing else, it would be nice to have just for its rare, historical significance.  But down through the years I have always wondered why the SABRINA engine never made it into their production cars.  They sure seemed to do their job on the race track, but there must have been issues why they never went into their normal production cars. 

I wonder if Kas or Mike Cook has any take on that.
