Re: IML: '65 engine choice - economics likely to decide?

Did you say "HEMI"???????? I agree it's better to leave it alone at 413
unless you are going to make a HEMI engine out of the 440. Are you planning
on doing wheelies in an Imperial?  Smoke some tires once and awhile? Drag
race at lights to surprise your competion ?

    It's true, the difference is only 10hp and 10 lb-ft.
    Now, if you were going to go more custom with the car and wanted to supe

up the engine, there are a lot of 440 hi-performance parts out there, and 
it's probably be easier and cheaper to do that with a 440 instead of a 413.
