I set them straight on the FaceBook site. The Mopar 305s in the Gas classes as well as Dick Brooks NASCAR Dodge Daytona in 1971 have their roots in the Trans-Am series (Sam Posey Challenger/Dan Gurney Cuda) and Keith Black. (LA small blocks) The 305 "Baby Hemi" has been mentioned from time to time over the years, but is incorrect. There were some smaller Hemis based on low deck big blocks for a little while before the 500 ci across the board rule was made.Charlie Malyuke built them for himself and John Hagen and they ran VERY well.
