As for the original post I think the hemi may lose a bit more thermally due to the massive chamber.

I'm having trouble finding it now but thought I read about a test on an ss/ah Hemi cast iron vs aluminum heads with the same port program and aluminum was down 40hp.

Could be wrong, that is just from memory, I'll keep looking for the info.

EDIT-

This is where I read that-
