Maybe the new one (whenever they come out in a couple of years) will be DFI and then yes, from 997.2 GT3 to back they will be seen as the 993 is seen today for being the last aircooled 911

i thought the 3.8's use a new block, i swear I saw that somewhere

The 3.8 in the C2S is new, the 9A1 motor. But the 3.8 in the GT3 is based on the same
dry sump GT1 motor that is always used. The Turbo has a 9A1 block but not the GT3.

It really is THAT much better! YMMV
