Re: [FWDLK] First Hemi

[Joseph Bouboulis <Joseph_Bouboulis@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Well the first hemi (not production!) was a prototype fighter engine built
during WWII. They built 3 2200 ci/2500 hp V16 hemi engines and tested them
but they never reached production. Wouldn't THAT be something in an FL car!

When was the Hemi first introduced?

I just saw this ad on eBay
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/ebayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1826565875&r=0

&t=0

Supposedly its a 1951 331 hemi...I didn't think the hemi was introduced
until a year or two later than that.

Is it the eBay listing, or am I mixin' up my facts?
