I feel that the biggest reason that there is little interest in all the new high tech inline fours is that they are in cars that don't interest most of the membership. Front wheel drive econoboxes and mini pickup trucks just do not have the same appeal as a '30's thru'50's era coupe or truck. Add to that the fact that most of those engines are east/west front wheel drive, electronic fuel injection applications that dont mate well in a rear drive 3700# classic cruiser or truck without a lot of related electronic junk. Now if sombody were to make a four valve, double overhead cam conversion head for the 292 Chevy or 300 Ford I would own one of them for sure.
