Fairly certain these are NASCAR motors...but I could be wrong.

Looks like uncle Tom himself would like to see how that motor mount is going to align.

This is at Nichols in Ill. They built all of Chryslers oval track cars... even some of Petty's

I'm behind in my magazines, and currently I'm reading a 2015 issue of Mopar Action and a series on Ray Nichels. That shot of the engines is from his shop. In the article, they said he always had 30-35 Hemis ready and waiting to go.

thanks for information on the location that picture was taken guys, I just figured it was at a Chrysler factory.

I\ll take one of those. LOL

These are later engines than shown in the first picture as told by the wrinkle valve covers on street production heads. Notice the "elephant ears" mounting system along with (what looks like) stock RH rubber motor mounts on both sides. Anyone know the reason for the angled oil filter mount?

I don't know but my guess would be for some kind of suspension or frame reinforcement clearance?
