What's even "funnier" if you will, that Chevy right now is using an "experimental" engine/head design, not available over the parts counter, but Dodge wants to run the production "HEMI" and basically told to forget it.

 

Suddenly it's 1965

What I read in "Circle Track" was the block was a hybrid, "A" engine dimensionality except for the long skirts
of the "B" enginem cross bolted for lower end stability.  The heads were, [here's where my memory gets
vague] simular to to Chevy heads except for a 1-2 degree different valve angle and additional head bolts. ??
Bore stroke I haven't a clue. Here, I found an article on Circle Tracks' web site.

I do remember NASCAR having a "cow" when Dodge wanted to have a long stroke version for specific
races.

>         Now and then I watch the NASCAR races and it is really nice to see Dodge running with the front runners in the race. But even when I asked Dodge guys that follow the NASCAR races what engine are in these Dodges--------------------I get a blank stare. No one seems to know. Now Dodge offers a six cylinder and a Hemi in their production cars. I am told there is no more small block V8. If they are running the Hemi's in NASCAR were they modified to slow them down? Do any of you guys know what is gone on with these engines in NASCAR.      Facts please first, then opinions 2nd.
