What engine is this?

I'm thinking of building a Lotus 7, the turbo isn't needed but a 300# V8 sounds great! I've been thinking of a Lexus 1UZ-FE the last version had variable valve timing and 300 or so hp at 320 pounds

The two blue and red on the left rear are Ford SOHC engines. The right rear one appears to be SBF with an overhead cam conversion. The front left some road race / inspired Ford engine.

The SOHC engine were a real innovation in their day as the cylinder heads had machined intake and exhaust ports as well as combustion chambers. The only production engine ever to have that level of finish machine work. It also was designed from the beginning as a high RPM with extended use.

Upper left Hemi 302 (experimental); lower left Indy turbo; center 7L experimental Le Mans; upper left , as mentioned, experimental SOHC; and the last one is a Boss 429.

As shown on the cover of Hot Rod Magazine, June 1968

The block maybe weighs 300#s. But the exhaust system looks to weigh a lot more than that.
