Half a hemi.... 
Looks more like two of those 4 cylinders welded together with a cylinder removed from each end or one cut in half with the center 2 cylinders from another welded together. It ain't no regular slant 6 that's for sure!

my guess its one of those Aussie HEMI 6 bangers..
I was looking around and the Australian slant and the straight inline hemi 6 do not have cross flow heads...thats a weird one plus the engine is slanted the other way unless the photo is reversed..

If you look close it looks to be aluminum and it has Mopar in blue lettering like the 4 banger half a small block has. There are versions for wedge heads and the P5 head which that appears to be. Just a guess though.
Oops, I meant the blue freeze plugs...

Plus it's slanted the other way like the 4 lunger is.

a few years back, I saw a rear engined dragster that had a big Ford straight 6...I looked closer and here he had Cleveland heads...they had cut the heads and welded them together to make a straight 6 and then machined them...it looked so factory..
you maybe right here that they took two heads to make the one...would that picture be reversed? as far as the slant goes or is that another trick engineering job ...
It's not reversed, the lettering isn't. That was the first thing I looked for but I can read upside down in a mirror too so...

Internet search -
"MOPAR powered Inline 6/P5 Hemi I/AA Comp Eliminator entry. The engine is an engineering marvel that started life as 2 mopar 4 cyl USAC sprint car blocks and 2 mopar P5 Hemi heads in his 2 car garage. John cut, welded together and partially machined both the heads and block with lazer like accuracy using common tools and without cnc equipment. Since his engine is essentially a unicorn John had to design, engineer and fabricate EVERYTHING from rocker stands, oilpan, belt drive, intake manifold to the simplist of brackets because these parts just don't exist."

Actually, most all of you figured it out. I think it is really neat, but this guy went through a great deal of pain and coin to do this. My question is, why stop at 6 cylinders, make it an in-line 8 instead of throwing away a couple cylinders and chopping a 1/4 off 2 heads to get 6? Either way, it truly is a wicked engineering effort. Won best engineered car at a National event last year. More redigested info: http://www.yellowbullet.com/forum/showthread.php?t=289099

That my friends is the essence of hot rodding and a labor of love. More power to him and I hope he conquers the world with it!!
