Why are they mounted at about an 8 degree angle? The twin cam head is wide so I can't see it offers a lower hood. Oil pickup maybe? Restoring my old sports/racer with alfa 1600, the engine would fit better upright. It has a conventional steel sump, not the batwing. Also thinking of replacing the Alfa with a 1275, it would be more appropriate, since the front and rear suspensions, wheels are very early 50's Cooper. But the Alfa is light and put out good power.
