We have a few local pro mod racers that started with a chevy style powerplant, one supercharged and one turbocharged. Both have switched to Hemis.

Who was it that said this: If I were to design a Hemi head, I surely wouldn't design it the way the 426 Hemi is designed... it's just that it's a comromise and oldish philosophy. Compromise because it's basically just a "retrofit" head in the first place, a wedge to hemi conversion. It shows mainly in the valvetrain. And a compromise because it has to fit somewhere. That can be seen in the exhaust port and the port heights. And an old design that can be seen on the port size." Who said that, again? |

I still think so, if it was done today or even at late 60's it would propably be very different. It was a quick fix to a problem, but has lived almost half a century now.
