Can't fool any of you guys. The .700 lift
reading was from a different set of race-prepared
early hemi heads. And you are right on regarding
the cost of building an old hemi, John. Exactly
why somebody who loves hemis as much as I do,
with three of them in my shop, is racing a SBC!
But eventually, not to long into the future,
don't be surprised when I show up at Maxton with
a hemi-powered car. It may not even go as fast
as my Camaro, but it will sure be great nostalgic
fun.
