Actually, the plug location in a Hemi is bad because it is off to one side.
Its the best you can do with a Hemi but its still bad.  As a result it needs
lots of ignition advance and high octane for a given compression.  Now the
Dick Landy twin plug heads really hastens the combustion and makes an
already strong engine much stronger.  Other mfgs have used twin plugs since
then.
