I could never understand all the hype about the hemispherical cylinder head design. What benefit does it have over the wedge? I've heard allot of bad things about the early hemis such as being more prone to detonation due to the large combustion chamber and poor quench which caused overheating issues . In recent years they have ben able to correct allot of those problems with the modern hemis but is there any real benefit or is it mostly hype?
