Hemi vs. Max Wedge

[mikelj@xxxxxxx]

I know all you guys have good advice and opinions about things Mopar.  So let me ask a question as to your views on putting a 426 Hemi (425 horse, dual quad type) vs. a 426 or 413 Max Wedge Stage III in a '64 Polara.  I know the torque and HP curves for them, but I am interested in the streetability and driveability of these engine setups.  I like to drive my cars and don't like cars that won't start easily, idle dependably, or stall frequently.  And I like an engine that is dependable and not too cantankerous and needing lots of attention.  Given that, I would be interested in your opinions of which would be best for a street car.  Thanks.
