I agree that something may be lost in the translation and did
not start this thread to be a smartass.
My thinking was that the engine is clearly a poly, and as
the bidding is getting fairly active, and as many of the bidders are in the US
and the car is in Sweden, and as the name "Hemi" has almost a mythical
significance in the US, and as the winner may be paying a big chunk of change
for shipment, and as there are buyers with more dollars than sense, it might
avoid some problems for the seller to get this cleared up while the auction is
active. Didn't know he was one of our many FL list members.
Was hoping to hear from Bill Watson about the
displacement.
There is no such thing as a poly-hemi, they are two different
engines, so the confusion continues.

I think we should all relax. The gentleman may not have
english as a first language and be confused thinking that a polysphere and
hemisphere engine are the same or that the designation means the same. Also if
he is using translated documents that may have came with the vehicle there
could be a translation error. I have a lovely Mazda shop manual that refers to
the item that controls the charging system as a
regurator.
