the difference will be the leverage on the bolts in the block...

if the mount is on a 45 deg angle, the same block weight is there, but there is less leverage on the bottom bolt...

i guess whaty i'm tryin to say is.. if the mount is angled, the engine will push the brackets into the rubber mounts...

if it's horizontal, you put a much greater tension on the bottom bolt.. tryin to pull it out of the block... whether this is an issue or not, i have no idea Wink
