If I ever get a new truck, it'll probably be a Ram. Never liked Chevys and was disappointed when Ford dropped the 7.3 diesel from the lineup...so it'd have to be a 2500 Ram with a Cummins
Speaking seperately about the term hemi though, I always found it funny how many car companies make or have made a "hemi" engine, but somehow people always associate it as a Dodge thing only

*quietly awaites yet another "runtiism"....
assHat....
Got a problem with my point about others making "Hemi" engines ?
Or are you just too stupid to even know what that means ?
My comment was relevant to the ops topic of Hemi, was yours ?
Well Mopar certainly did make the term famous alright, I just wonder how many other people out there who are driving "hemi" engines cars even know they have one.
Ok Humps, Im going to change my av now just for you, guessing you may like this !!
But hey, what about all the Honda accords running around, or the VW passats, theyre running hemis to ya know !
ie, turning a 350 Chevy into a 383....a 302 Ford into a 347....a 351 Ford into a 408....or a 460 Ford into a 514
ah guess the old 318 interceptors we had is long gone ... Valiant/Dogde/Chrysler.
I remember the first guy to out run an interceptor, didnt know he was .... until they turned up in his drive 5 minutes after he got home
Hey I have already changed it again, but did you see the av pic of the hemi cuda I posted for you ?
BTW all my Av pics (except for like 2 joke pics) are of me, taken by me, in my shop, or of me driving. These are not just pics of cars at someone elses place but cars I have driven and worked with.
Ok new av pic to give the answer.
OK New pic for you
It ended up becoming the motor they used in NHRA ... And of course .. It's the very motor that ate those Ferraris alive in the GT40 at LeMans.
The term "production engine " and use in NHRA.
I didnt think the cammer engine ever made it in to a production car.
Didnt recall GT 40 using that engine either.
When I think of NHRA I think of Chrysler hemi for top fuel, and BBC with pontic for pro stock.
Could be though, as I say I didnt check you, just going from what my memory tells. Then again my memory isnt what it used to be.
It's a bit lengthy to post all details here... Basically the rules of NASCAR in the 60's was the motors must be in a minimum of 500 production cars. Ford offered this motor as an option for the galaxies, fairlanes and even the mustang. This was also the motor used in the GT40's as well as the 427 AC cobras. The motor did take on various forms however, depending on year and it's intended application.
The first argument in NASCAR was that ford was running highrisers on their race motor that tech. Wouldn't fit under stock hoods of galaxies .. They did change it to a lowriser .. But NASCAR decided to ban that motor to. The bs thing is that Dodge and Plymouth was running their 426 hemi .. And it hadn't ever been place in a production car until 1965.
The GT40s I saw did not have it either.
From what I remember the 427 ohc had reliability issues.
These engines were sold over the Ford parts counter. Ford recommended blueprinting the engines before use in racing applications. 4V model C6AE-6007-363S, 8V model C6AE-6007-359J, $2350.00, October 1968.
Though Ford sold the required number of units to homologate the design, the Cammer was prevented from running against the Chrysler hemi at Daytona in 1965 due to NASCAR rule changes. Many Cammers found their way into Mustangs running A/FX Factory Experimental drag racing."
The FE 427 sohc side-oiler block was used in the cobras and the GT40 ... The cammer was Fords response to the 426 hemi, ford changed the cams and
