RW>If your Dodge had the Hemi V8 engine, it would have a dual coil over with
RW>dual wires, one to a plug in the cylinder under it, the other to a plug in
RW>the opposite bank. Yes, they have two plugs per cylinder. One coil fires
RW>when the cylinder is near tdc, while an opposite coil will fire the 2nd
RW>plug when that cylinder is on an exhaust stroke. All in the name of
RW>emissions control. Someone told me a hundred years ago that the Chrysler
RW>hemispherical combustion chamber was inefficient and I guess this proves
RW>it.

Think that could be a reason for the Performance advantage??
