Well, opposite ends of the scale. The Hemi was the top end engine, limited production on purpose, the slant six was the basic engine and standard in most cases, a staple engine so to speak. Yes, straight sixes of different configurations go all the way back to the beginning of almost all car companies (a few exceptions), and are/were as common as a pair of shoes. Not a real reason to promote such a staple actually, but yes, great engines.
