They both have their good and bad points. Owning a car with each, my observations are:
- Cant' beat the Hemi for 'ooh & ahh' appeal
- Anything Hemi related is EXPENSIVE.....
- 440s can be built to be competitive with the Hemi for less $$$
- 440s are easier to keep in tune
- Nothing beats the sound of a Hemi under WOT with all 8 barrels open!!
