since when is the srt4 a hemi??

 

i read an article a while ago that showed the SRT4 with the same hemisphyrical cumbustion chamber (hemi)

they had a picture of an srt4 motor cut in half so you could see it

 

thats kind of a cool fact

 

yea but i just searched for it and cant find it...

if i'm wrong someone correct me!

but i'll be sad because i've thought that it was built like this for hte longest time

 

Right or wrong makes no differance.

When a person says MoPar Hemi everyone thinks V8 IE: Red Ram, FireDome, FirePower, 426 or the current one.
MoPar produced V8 hemi's in all of the following cuin. 241, 259, 270, 276, 291, 315, 325, 330, 331, 341, 345, 354, 370, 392, 426

I may have missed one or two (CRS is kicking in at my age)

 

yea man you're right...


i dont think a lot of people know that hemi stands for what i stated above

 

Most also don't know Chrysler made a V12 and V16 Hemi also they never went into production though.

i knew of the v16 hemi not the v12...and i know what a hemi is the combustion chamber is of hemispherical form or inenglishThe combustion combustion chamber is shaped like half of a sphere.i have been thinking of making some hemi headsfor my bonneville i worked on some before so i got to learn what it means

 

The V12 was for a tank.
As far as you making some hemi heads for your bonneville. (I have a small foundry setup and a Machine shop and I would not attemp that project)

 

Technicly the SRT isnt a Hemi because it has pent roof combustion chambers, even the new Hemi isnt quite a Hemi as it uses the same Pent roof Chambers. Similar design but not quite a real Hemi.

Real Hemi's have half round chambers that are totally smooth with no rough edges or angles.
