I have the article and the latest word from the Trevor Creed at the LA Auto
Show and answer why there is a variant rake angles changes to the opposing
valves design. It is still a Hemi....if this seems to be a problem, then
don't buy one. But then, bring out the old Magnum motor and lets have a
shoot out. LOL
Oh, then the 565 CUI Hemi crate motor is not a Hemi either by your account.
Sorry Gabe, just pun only.

Subject: DML: RE: RE: RE: was '05 Dak on Buzz/ now Hemi question
no its not based on the 426... i was reading that article, and they stated
that there is nothing based on the 426. other than a couple of identicle
(HEMI proprietary things) parts, there is nothing common between the two
(except the "heritage"). this is a totally new engine, which features less
extreme angles in the combustion chambers (screaming for an R/T head and
piston change). its about half the angle of the 426. re-read the article.
