Got this in a parts lot Lincoln y block or ford equivalent?

It came with ofenhauser heads

[2002p51]

It's most of a Revell Chevy 409. The Offenhauser "heads" you mention are really valve covers.

Google told me it's a B&M Hydro.

In the middle of the tube frame is a central driving position with a butterfly steering wheel that'd look at home on a Cessna.

The seat is balanced in a flimsy-looking roll cage, the steering column terminates in an altered Willys steering box and the driver straddles a B&M hydromatic. (B&M is a transmission rebuilder that changes an automatic into semi-automatic with a ratchet shifter, so you hit it once and it shifts one gear instead of going up through all three or four gears like a regular automatic.)

Yup.

It's a first-generation Oldsmobile OHV V8, (303, 324, 371, 394 cu.in.) with a Potvin-driven, front-mounted GMC blower, Hilborn fuel injection, a Hydramatic auto gearbox, and cast-aluminum Offy valve covers.

The B&M HydroStick was a race-bred conversion of the early GM Hydramatic auto trans.
