DIY, VVT for Gen-I SBC?!...

Thought I'd throw this out here even if it's only for conversation sake.

 

In researching LSx power plants for my next HybridZ, I ran across a couple tid-bits on GM's usage of Variable Valve Timing (VVT) on at least 4 of the current production LSx engines, the 6.0L LY6, L76, LFA, and the 6.2L L92, (heard somewhere that a 5.3 now uses this as well?) Gains to be had are more than just slight, more details on that in this thread;

So the thought entered my mind that maybe some of you entrepreneur types might be interested in adapting this technology to the traditional SBC. Not sure how feasible it is in reality, I would think it could be adapted from the LSx to the traditional SBC with some creative engineering/fab work?! Maybe even the SBF and Mopars as well?
