COMPARED TO WHAT? Do you realize the engine would run cooler and get better MPG and power if it was setup with a tight deck and wedge chamber? most users of the SH are comparing their new engine to a worn out old one (often much smaller displacement), so any comparison is worthless in this situation. > 2) Why does the best Muscle engine ever made (the Chrysler Hemi) use a hemi > head with no quench area? these were built in the HP by brute force era. They made HP by the volume of flow thru the heads. What MPG did they get? :-) > 3) Why did Toyota use a full hemi head on thier older econoboxes? they got > great gas mileage and ran pretty darn well! > I'm not familiar with them. Are they using a full hemi head NOW? why not?
