I thought I read somewhere that slant design was to lower the hood line of the cars. Great little engines, never really had any problems with any that I’ve owned. They all did exactly what they were supposed to, haul my *** to work and back :thumbsup:
This car started it’s life as a 198 slant. My friend and I used it to commute to school 80 mile round trip for 2 years It’s had a few mods since then runs 10s
