BMW inline 6s sit like that as well. There's a lot of Inline engines that are slightly angled.

Even SRs are slightly tilted. That's why one side of a GReddy oil pan is taller than the other.

It's so the hood doesn't have to be as high as with a perfectly upright engine.

Ehh, I guess its alright, I mean if your into this sort of thing. jk. This is just one more build thread that lets me know just how amateur I really am. Thanks for some spank bank files. Maybe, one day, when I really grow up, I'll be a real fabricator. If you'll excuse me, I'm going to go suck start my shotgun now.

Lately, there has not been much to update, as I have just been sorting out the rest of the parts I need, and still designing the layout of everything. The engine will arriving at the garage soon, and the pace will speed up.

Thanks everybody, during the move to my new house, progress has slowed, but not halted. Before the move, I intend to complete the long block, and box up the engine for a safe journey. Standby for shiny "JDM" bells and whistles!

Hello all, for now the project is hold, as Hurricane Sandy was not too kind to us here in New Jersey. The car is okay, but the house needs attention before I can continue with the car. Sorry, but the build will go on.
