This is a picture of the 997 GT3 engine. It's a development of the last one. Not a complete new unit.

I am pleased to hear the new cup car has the 964 case engine, hopefully they do the same with the street car.

Interesting, not using the Spanish 996 crank case like in the later built 996 GT3's???

Wonder what the base MSRP will be? I'm guessing $115-120k.
