Steve, You might "feel" that old, but you're not really old enough for carbon dating. Besides, you're still alive, which makes the process a tad more difficult

Hate to bust your bubble, but I have many decades experience with Mopars, Packards, Studebakers, etc., etc., etc.. And as you so eloquently explained if the original "Hemi" part started out life as the lowly wedge part (which it probably did), then taking the wedge part and modifying it (now) as the factory did would mean that you just turned it in to a "hemi" part...just like Mopar did.

You can't do that with real live honest to God "Hemi specific" parts.

Oh yeah, my post count on this one forum means nothing, except to those who think they're better, holier, whatever, because they have more posts on "this forum". Cause when it gets down to it, this forum doesn't mean much outside of this forum

Y'all are acting like the "old folks" over on Yellowbullet

Wow...all that experience...and not a bit of tact, manners or friendliness! You should be proud.

Glad you wasted everyone's time to come onto this site to argue about semantics.

Do us a favor and don't enlighten us any more with your vast knowledge...we already have someone here that has forgotten more than you could ever know...and he's the antithesis of you!

Move along...nothing to see here...
