Default RE: Inverted Engine

I've mounted some, even on ugly 'ol bare faced Stiks, with the muffler low and centered. That usually puts the engine head at a 8:00 position or so. Centralizes the muffler weight and drag and gives a less detractive look. And, most importantly, spits the exhaust oil down and away from the airframe.
