Quote: I like the fact that you are trying to compare a wedge to a hemi
two diffrent motors
Two different motors, yes...but from the SAME basic foundation or block dimensions. HEMI - High rpm powerhouse. WEDGE - Lower rpm torque monster. Best battleground is between the 220ft and 1000ft marks (1/4 mi). A good lead margin there, you've won.
the blocks are not the same
if the wedge block was like the hemi block (4 )cross bolt mains
and they kept the max wedge port or even bigger / diffrent head (none hemi )
maybe the wedge would have been better than it is
if you where to compare the hemi to big block chevy it would be intresting
