Default FE Push Rod Hemi?
In another thread, cam choice was discussed with regard to a 527 cid FE. I couldn't help but think the cammer heads would make a huge difference, but we all know the cost is huge. It got me wondering if anyone ever made or adapted to run a Hemi head on the FE, but instead of the fifty foot chain (exaggeration), a push rod design?

Mopar did it and Ford did it with the 429 Boss semi Hemi.

Did anyone make a push rod Hemi head for the FE?

Would that bring the cost down to a reasonable level?

For that matter was there ever a canted valve head for the FE?
