Comparing a Big-Block Chevy to a HEMI? No comparision ( sorry chevy guys). HEMI can and will
rpm in places where "Rat Motors" will never go to.
Funny thing though, Ford's 427 SOHC motor could do
major strip damage to a Chevy Big Block also! 600+
horses "out-the-box"! After all, it IS a hemi (head type) motor!





If you have ever seen a "Ball Stud" Hemi it was for all intents and purposes a knock off of the Chevrolet Big Block. The design was proven and while it didnt offer the true "maximum performance" of the 426Hemi, the big chevrolet made tons of power and was a far more uncomplicated and cheaper design. Probably the best overall high performance engine ever produced when you take everything into account...
