Thanks for your reply gold28
Say, since we're talking, I was thinking "why engines are tilted?"
I think for FR cases the real reason may not be engine power but instead to match the gearbox's output angle straight to the rear axle's input...
i.e. since the rear axle's input is off-set. This requires the gearbox in the front to be slightly off-set as well, hence when bolted onto the engine, the engine has to be off-set a little as well, and may be during the off-set manufacturing time, they found it necessary to tilt the engine to match everything properly.
Any take on this?
