Depends on how many jugs I can find. I dont want D jugs, not the saw kind anyhow.

I may even build myself a saw. How crazy is that?

No. Same spark plug location. The chamber is just round and domed.
This is a hemi chamber 046 jug. (The squish has been cut)

 

[Funky sawman]

Ok, im used to automotive were a true hemi has hemisperical chamber and center of chamber spark ignition

 

[Funky sawman]

Then some auto engines have spark plug off to one side...semi hemi

 

[Funky sawman]

Atleast that what I have been taught by local engine builders.

Pretty sure a “Hemi” chamber is just a chamber that’s hemispherical (a dome that’s symmetric).

Where the plug is placed doesn’t change what it’s called.

The original Chrysler Hemi’s had a centrally placed plug and pure Hemi chamber. The one in the current models are a marketing misnomer, they aren’t true Hemis. They are an oval chamber with dual plugs and 2 squish pads.

Semi-Hemi is how Chevy marketed their “MarkII” engines in 1963. The Rat or Big Block motor had canted valves and a rounded/Hemi-like chamber unlike the bathtub/wedge shaped chambers of that era. Because of this and the popup crown, they called it a “Semi-Hemi” for marketing. Mopar began to rule the tracks and streets with their design at the time.

An article above about it.

Here’s a 426 Hemi chamber


Here’s the new version

 

[drf256]

Chevy figures out that the power was in the unshrouded valves and not the chamber itself. Squish and swirl still mattered.
