Are the 3.4 L V6s in 99' 4runners Hemis?
I have recently gotten a 99' 4runner and i noticed that the plugs are arranged in such a fashion, straight across the heads, that they reminded me of the hemis. Are they infact hemispherical or semi-hemispherical? I have been wondering about this for some time.

Although they are in the middle of the head, they are not really true hemispherical combustion chambers.

The new "hemi" powered trucks/cars that dodge is pumping out are a joke! Especially when you actually know that their hemi is not a true hemi

I'm glad to see those Dodge commercials with the 2 rednecks saying That thing got a Hemi? disappear.
