It's named after the shape of a hemi engine's combustion chamber of course.
It's named after the marketing logo on the back and sides of some unreliable "stellantis" vehicles.
I know all about the combustion chamber shape, but this hemi thing has become purely a marketing tool at this point.
Like "TRD". What seller would brand their products with the word "turd"?
Oh I forgot they still made hemis. I meant the 60/ and 70s stuff. That actually had hemispherical chambers.
