Allen,

Didn't mean to imply that the Hemi was the only over-factored combo in A or AA/SA. I know the 427 has been worked just as hard (if not harder...) than the Street Hemi has been. I'll never forget the weekend Bobby D dropped into the 9's for the first time. We were all rooting for him. I'm also well aware of the differences between the two engines. Believe it or not, I do know a little (emphasis on "little") about Chevrolets! LOL

The Max Wedge and NASCAR Hemi are better combos than the Street Hemi in the Challenger/Barracuda. Due to the flaws in the AHFS system, the Street Hemi in the B-Body is still extremely competitive. I would even venture to say that's the best combo for the class at the moment. Barton's car is very fast and I know Shaul's is as well, but I'm not certain that the Street Hemi can't outrun them in a B-Body.

The A and AA/SA wars should get very interesting in the next couple of years when the new Mustangs and Challengers start popping up. Then we can start this whole debate all over again.
