About ten years ago, Toyota made a 2.8 and 3.0 aluminum hemi V-8 for the
japanese and foreign market only. They weren't imported to the US, but there
are quite a few that made it into this country and are floating around. They
made pretty good power, and I've seen one with a set of webbers and custom
headers. Dimensionally, the motor is about the size of a V8/60 Ardun. Really
neat little motor.
The British Daimler also had a small hemi back in the fifties. I saw one
only last week.
