Default Engine at 45deg angle

Hi Y'all,

Other than providing extra room for a muffler, is there any advantage/disadvantage to tilting an engine 45deg rather than upright, 90deg or inverted? Seems to me it would tend to make the plane more heavy on the side to which the engine is tilted.

Thanks Guys,
Sonnytex
