I was pretty young back in the days when these cars were racing and winning just about every race they ran.

Given that as it is I read a while back that all they had to do to was to relocate the heads from one bank to the other to get the exhaust pointed towards the ground. That eliminated the nest of snakes that those cammers had on top of the engine that went to the turbo when used in the rear engine asphalt cars.

Watched a Ford cammer engine strapped to a wooden pallet sell for $35,000.00 at Smokey Yunick's auction at his shop in Holly Hill, Florida back in '88 or '89.
