The only reason for calling it a Hemi is marketing. I believe it is al least semi hemishperical heads if not fully? Not sure. but wanyways, it's like Ford choosing 5.0 for the Mustangs new displacement. Owners do this too, don't know how many times I have heard the 346ci LS1 referred to as a "350" or the 5.3 truck motor (323 ci believe) referred to as a 327.
