    Clearly it's a small block chevy with that stuff bolted to it.
     
  4. ^^^ Thats what I'm saying. No way that's a Y block with a those exhaust manifolds and the distributor straight up.

    That engine is not a Y Block, it looks like a Chevy , look at the water pump, the moisture door on the distributor cap, the intake ports on the manifold, the oil fill is in the wrong spot.

    I know they have a white van... I think they support Mama Tried or some vintage bike racing in Milwaukee.
