Oh baby!
That is a great photo, looks like a shrine to the Chrysler hemi.
So reminds me of a 671 blown and Enderle injected BIG inch 392 that an acquaintance bought from a local drag boat racer, his original plan was to put it in his deuce 3W then he came to his senses, if I remember right, he built a SBC for it.
Last I saw it, it was sitting on a big old engine stand in the corner of his shop, it looked like a shrine too.

 

A Hemi and highbeams. Perfect!
