Gave my cousin a wedgie once but not the same I guess trying to get a hemi to run with a wedge cam (or vice verse) would be the same feeling

I dont know how many times i've heard that, with guys talking up their 'killer' wedges... "Yep, got the hemi cam in there..." Last time i heard that i replied "Wow... and it ran...???" Gotta a pretty funny look...
