The Land Cruiser I bought has a 351 Cleveland and because I found quite a few things done hastily by the PO and wanting to do a restomod that would suit my needs, stripped it complete and now about to put the engine back onto the chassis.
I would like to place it so that it has the right angle sloping backwards (getting air out of the system from what I can gather).
The plane on which the carburetor bolts to is different from the top of the valve covers which looks like if the carburetor plane is 0 degrees, the valve covers is already sloping backwards meaning the whole engine is already at a slope.
Is this the factory angle for the engine if the carburetor plane is 0 deg?
