So....unless it's a race car ....what's the point?

I can understand if it needs a crank or something.
Outside of that....why??

Would like to hear pros and cons either way!
There is very good horsepower in a stock stroke Hemi. Chrysler killed hp when they were detuned for street cars . If it was me I would build a stock stroke with no less 10.5 cr and a solid roller or solid lifter cam and a new Edelbrock 2X4 intake. Old grinds work well on the street. Built one last year with a Isky 550 roller and it's very streetable. And this picture was taken before I finished the carbs. I removed every bit of the choke and linkages and it's starts immediately..
