Its obviously a V something (two cylinder heads) therefore I would surmise its a V8.

Its obviously Petrol due to the ignition leads.

Due to its size its probably american.

The headers look all toss and '50/'60/'70s aemrican...

I would hazzard a guess at it being some form of BIG BLOCK V8 (probably chevy or summit)

and in one of those stopid old HUGE pickups!

I may be wrong......................It looks like a late 60s to early 70s plymouth/dodge type vehicle making the block a Mopar unit, V8 config by the size of the carb it may be 273 (?) or 318ci to 360ci small block (360ci = 6ltrs).

K so its a small block, but I was just looking at the engine shot and that was all we had to guess of before the other piccies were posted so I was nearest :D
