The powerplant in that car is pretty cool:

“The beast began life as a Cadillac Northstar aluminum block. We reversed the flow of the 32V, DOHC cylinder heads, which resulted in exhaust headers running out of the top center where the intake manifold would have typically been. This setup required us to fabricate 2 small intake manifolds which would fit in the normal location of the exhaust headers. Each intake manifold has its own Root-style supercharger feeding it through 2 air-to-water intercoolers.”
