The price for that is $35,000.00. A front straight axle conversion needs to be done. That would be the cost for a 5.7 litre hemi. The larger hemi motors could be done as well.

God...Wouldn't that be one hell of a vehicle... I can hear it now.. Yeah my KJ goes 0-60 in 13 seconds, Yeah Well My KJ goes 0-60 in 4 seconds hah! That's one bad puppy there.. :twisted:

Also: The current-production "HEMI" engine does not employ truly hemispherical combustion chambers; they are flatter and more complex than the 1950s–'70s Hemi V8 chamber. It uses a coil-on-plug distributorless ignition system and two spark plugs per cylinder to shorten flame travel leading to more consistent combustion which helps reduce emissions.

Far as I know its a hemi..

The 4.7 is 'almost' a hemi from what Ive read. Not sure if that means the 3.7 has the same shape heads as the 4.7..

yes, the 4.7 and 3.7 are semi hemi's...as for the 5.7 and 6.1's:

"The engine's unique two-valve hemispherical combustion chamber within an aluminum head provides impressive air flow, torque and power (hallmarks of the original), and gives the engine its throaty rumble."- from allpar.com

http://www.allpar.com/mopar/new-mopar-hemi.html

IT'S A HEMI!
