His eternal fame, however, came when he and Don Moore decided there had to be something better than the conventional RB-based wedge big blocks. Hoover had cut his teeth as a youth working on first-generation Chrysler Hemis, so that was naturally where his efforts returned, and the result was the 426 Hemi in 1964."
