440 comes with 3??? not saying a hemi isn't a better engine at all, just saying for 90% of us it's not financially practical. Even if it's going in a race car unless the OP wants to go 8's a wedge now a days is going to be much cheaper. You can build a real nice wedge for under 10k.... you can't build a Hemi for that. If you can you already have half the parts on your shelf.
The thing is once you own the parts there is no engine easier to make power with. You can make more power by mistake with a hemi. Its no problem at all to make 7 or 800 hp with all the stock castings, stock rocker arms for crying out loud. Try that with a wedge.
