I never get this.
How can it be a hemi if it is not a cross flow - that's the whole point of the REAL hemi, not just the shape of the combustion chamber.

Let the debate start ;)

its a hemi in the the same way as the poly is a hemi

open chambered with wonky valves

which to a marketing man is a hemi

when compared with a real hemi

no way...... not a hemi

but that hemi name brings sales

it made this six stand out from the chevy and ford sixes....

red hot extractors

yes they would have got red hot

but it would have helped if they had used the correct special cold plugs for their dyno run

first two attempts they used standard street plugs and melted everything

took a US engineer to arrive and point out the error...


a set of repro extractors like those is now $2500...

cast tool steel flanges with sections to slide the pipes into

rediculouse cost
