265 hemi straight six

When I finally saw one at a meet my first thought was that it was just a GM 265 inline, upright American 6 cylinder. After seeing one, I was totally over my "Hemi 6" infatuation. While toolmanmike says it was designed for Chrysler in an earlier post, I'll go to the grave thinking it's nothing more than a rebadged GM 265 inline six. Doesn't make it a bad motor, as others have suggested they developed a good reputation for reliability, durability and even performance in the triple sidedraft version. Just a lot of cash to import and build one that has little if any "Hemi" look to it.
