Welcome to the website devoted to the new HEMI. Based on the popular 340-360 Mopar
block, we have increased performance dramatically by making the small block breathe. The heads were designed to bolt on to the small block and increase horsepower and torque by leaps and bounds.

What do you guys think? Anyone ever see one? Anyone want one? :)

From what I can tell, they seem to only offer complete engines.

Here is what appears to be their entry-level small-block HEMI.

408 Cu in. Street Small Block Hemi
360 Block
Aluminum Hemi Heads
Ross Forged Aluminum Pistons 10.5/1
H Beam 4340 Rods
Forged 4340 Crank Shaft
ARP Main & Head Studs
Camshaft flat tappet Hyd. Or solid lifters
Intake single 4 with carb
MSD Distributor with 6AL box
Engine internally balanced and blue printed
500HP
$12,000.00

Not cheap but you're getting an aluminum headed small-block HEMI.

And when has a HEMI ever been cheap? 8)

$7200 for a of heads will keep them from ever becoming very
popular. If they'd cut the price and offer a pair of heads and
a manifold as a package for around $2000 to $2400 or so max - ie -
about the price for comparative aftermarket head and manifold packages for most other engines, they'd probably sell a bunch of
them and make their money back on volume. As it is at the current price, I can't see anyone buying them or these heads ever being anything more than a novelty. Too bad to, because bolt-on hemi
heads for a Mopar LA motor if priced reasonably would sell like
crazy.
