C'mon, Mike. Same way you mount it vertical, except you just lay it over at 90 degrees to vertical...
It would require some creative work on the firewall and mount, though. Maybe I need to look at that when I pull my kit out.

The engine cylinder is much thicker then the airfoil so there would be more then just the needle valve in the grass on landing. The equipment compartment is the thickest part of the airframe so the engine in front of that would leave the least amount of frontal area.
But, send me pics if you try it.
