Mike,
I noticed that you're located in California. This engine may be from Sonny Bryant. He's been in SoCal most of his life, growing up in Orange, Ca. He still has a shop there. He can be reached at
Sonny Bryant Racing....(714)535-2695.

He's now known for his crankshafts for both drag racing and NASCAR. In fact, this car uses his crankshafts...



which was taken from The Army Top Fuel Dragster website.

And here's a listing from a video that he's in from Draglist.com's drag racing videoswebsite.

And finally from The NHRA itself

A recap of a race [ QUOTE ]
One of the longest dry spells in Pro Stock history fell by the wayside today when Osborne beat his Mopar Parts teammate Darrell Alderman for the title. The last time a Hemi-powered machine collected a national event win in the class was 1979, when Randy Humphrey outran Sonny Bryant at the Mile-High Nationals in Denver.

Sonny Bryant is the original owner of my brothers Camaro.

Try giving him a call!
