Quote: The question is why can't we associate OEM brands with aftermarket parts?
I see nothing wrong whatsoever with calling predator heads Mopar because is was intended to go on a Mopar product. I think brand association is a good thing. Why not call big 900ci engines ford, chevy, mopar, whatever?
Well, My block says Mopar on it and is a Hemi block that could and would accept Hemi heads. I haven't seen a GM emblem on the Sonny motor, although I didn't get a vey good look at it. And the guy that owned it said "there isn't a Chevy part that will fit on this thing, it's a one off custom purpose built race motor". And there was never a Chevy hemi that I know of, but if the builder wants to call it a Chemi, what do I care. And to a point mine is a purpose built race motor too. I don't care what you call it as long as I'm able to race the Mopar shows and can qualify in the T/D field. That's the only reason I decided to go that way, there were no other options using a mopar bottom end. And it's my opinion they are alot stronger that any other design.
