I've been wandering why is the 5sfe engine tilted? Does it have to do with the transmission position or what? I'm clueless to why it's tilted. Lol.

maybe because it is a tinsy bit bigger look at a 5sfe and the 7afe theres no room infront of the 5sfe if it wasnt titled it would rub into the fans, and the 7afe has alot more room. plus the 5sfe has the bulkier headers . but then again might be for keeping the engine cool.
