Any idea on the price assembled? U.S. facilities available? Sorry, I don't read German, so I couldn't decipher the website information.

Any ideas of how much power/torque/displacement they were able to achieve with their normally aspirated air-cooled Metzger?

I think Colin at this place in UK does some good hot-rod work on large displacement normally aspirated air-cooled motors. Mentions 460hp from 4.0L on first page:

Should be even better throttle response than GT3, since it uses mechanical link (rather than E-Gas) and 6 individual throttles instead of a single throttle body (like GT3 RSR).

No question but I was just curious how far Manthey had gone with their air-cooled development and the differential to their new water cooled toys.
