I don't know about "HEMI" heads. Seeing as how the new hemi isn't really a hemi. If you know what a real hemi looks like inside you would know what I mean and what I'm talking about.

But hows this for close?

End

In order for them to work on LSx engines they'd have to be custom cast for the bolt pattern. The closest thing I've seen is Sonny Leonard's version for BBCs: http://www.sonnysracing.com/products/heads/hemi.html
