Chrysler corporation never made a 440 'HEMI'. The 440 started being produced in 1966 and only had a 'wedge' shaped chamber configuration as most engines of the time also did. The (second generation) HEMI was only produced in a 426 cubic inch configuration, from 1964 through 1971. They produced about 11,000 of these special engines during this period The term HEMI stands for hemispherical shaped combustion chambers.
