| Ed,
I'm gonna have to vote with Matt on this one. The posts are for the education of the group. While I understand your point and am occasionally annoyed by an in box full of posts not of interest to me, I am quick with the delete button, happy for my freedom to use it, and more concerned for the learning of others than my own potential annoyance.
On a day like Thanksgiving, in a place where rocket and small arms fire are the norm, this really is "small potatoes" in the bigger scheme of things.

Happy Thanksgiving.
I suggest this discussion, like many others, be on the board and not emailed to every list member. I know anything about this poly/hemi change, nor do I care about it, and don�t want to go through all the emails, of every private discussion. Thanks for your understanding. Just remember when you send an email out if it has to go to everyone � or if it would be better posted on the appropriate section of the great FL website. Hope you�re all having a wonderful Thanksgiving. Ed Petrus My first brand new car was a '56 Dodge Coronet, coupe, D500. I ruled my area of western PA for many months, until a '57 Pontiac tri-power came along. And then he only nudged me out in a 1/2 mile drag race on the back roads of PA. I won every race between my D500 and the new '57 D500's the Dodge dealer (my cousin) had. Maybe in those days, the answer was the 3/4 race cam I had ordered with the car. Dammit, I was in college in 1961 and the engine needed an overhaul. I had no spare cash so traded it in on a 1959 Hillman for the economy. I still am kicking my posterior. Fast forward to 1985. I purchased a '56 Dodge Custom Royal 4-door sedan. Rebuilt everything and replaced the stock 4-barrel carb with a 650 cfm Carter. I could not tell any performance difference between this car and the D500 I had many years before. And, I even leaned the jets out as I was going to drive it to the WPC National Meet in Detroit that year and I wanted a bit of economy. Just my 2 cents worth. Happy Thanksgiving everyone. Well, you'd better TELL him that his new car ain't gonna be like the
one he used to own...his new cloned engine will not perform as well
as his former one did, even though it might appear to he a Hemi engine.
Dave Homstad brought up a good point about the exhaust manifolds
being different between the two engines, as well as the general mechanical
differences between them.
Really feel sorry for the car's next owner, though.
