Is the engine in this car considered a Stage II?

Came across this car while looking for some other stuff. Is this engine a Stage II? Are the Indy/Champ cars what those engines originally come from?

Here's another link. Pretty cool looking. I think these aren't turbo charged though.

Yes those are Stage 2 engines. Can't see an engine shot in the first link but I'd be willing to bet that it is Stage powered.

Here's a pic of the engine.
