Oh by the way, the new hemi is not a true hemi engine.

"the heads have true Hemi chambers with a few cubic centimeters of additional material on each side to channel the flow and get the proper burn characteristics"

Oh, not to be picky but its a patent not a copyright. It also has a time period limitation of 20 years, so technically thats not the reason why one has not been made. GM has made hemi engines for some race cars. In general the hemisphere setup is believed to be more expensive then other methods.
