There is nothing so awful somebody doesn't like it. Toyman is correct, though.

What's the point? With that deep of a sump, those long headers and the engine up so high you definitely don't have a lower cg than a traditional engine.

The point is to get the crank centerline high enough that the propeller is in the right place height-wise for good handling. Some people mount rotaries sideways for this reason, too. More info

Well I think this post was misleading. Do you realize how much time I lost looking for my hotlink to fire back and show someone how stupid they were for designing an engine like that?

I'm going to have to go to my safe place now.

Saw one of these on my way to work today, I tried to get him to floor it, but the Versa wasn't intimidating enough..
