I am guessing that this would be Tony's Daytona. It was an interesting setup and certainly did use the space at the front of the engine well. There were some problems with keeping the engine cool and I seem to recall that he was looking to move away from this arrangement to improve the cooling. I haven't seen the car since so I am not sure what eventuated.
