Toyota in Nascar.What cylinder heads do they run on their cars?
All the V8 Toyota's have an overhead cam engine and they aren't allowed in Nascar.
I heard they were using a variation of a Chrysler head.

I haven't really been able to find ant specifics on any of the engines that are used. But I do know when Toyota first came in they had to actually use Chevy's design and I'm sure TRD (Toyota Racing Development) made little changes, just used the Chevy as a base to work off of. As far as I know Toyota's engines are unchanged from the time they came in, of course I'm sure they've made little changes but never done a whole engine redesign like Ford did with the FR9.
