Eric, why do you think the motor is called the leaning tower of power. Dump trucks, motor homes and big bodied Mopars, lol.

 I never
 would have thought that the /6 would be in a motor home. 
 Must have been fun to drive over the mountains.  I've
 never drive a "C" size body car with the /6 but I
 can't think it would move very fast.  The Darts were
 just fine, my 63 Valiant and my 64 Dart GT both had it.  NP
 with them, had plenty of power and good gas mileage.  Maybe
 the 59 was a swap or miss tittled.  I have seen a few of
 those with the wrong years.  WA state was good at that for
 a time.

 More than
 one. I have proved with these diagrams that the
 engine is NO LOWER AT ALL. Yet each time I have stated that
 someone comes back and says it's lower. It definitely is
 no lower!

 You're misinterpreting what you
 think you're seeing. That's why your claim isn't
 gaining any traction--it's not
 correct. The cylinder head casting, in fact, is higher
 with the engine slanted.

 Nope, it's lower. It just plain
 and simply, actually really is.
  The lower centre of gravity is principally
 because the camshaft and lifters are significantly
 lower
 This claim has no basis in fact.
  Yes, the engine bay in the Australian cars
 was the same as US cars until 1969, the only differences
 being in the chassis rails where the steering box and idler
 arm are mounted. 
 There were other differences in the
 engine bay of Australian cars. The firewall, for example,
 was different starting with the first RV1 (1961 model,
 called "1962" in Australia), continuing through
 the SV1, AP5, AP6, VC, VE, and VF. 

 As to engine
 length, the shortness of the engine relied on two things.
 First, the bore centres being close together; second the
 water pump being mounted to one side. BOTH of these could
 have been achieved with a vertical
 engine.
 Nope, the laterally offset water
 pump couldn't have worked with the cylinders upright.
 You're guessing --
 incorrectly. 
 The engines sat
 no lower in the Australian
 cars
 This bit's true.
 Sorry, Ray, it must seem like
 I'm picking on you. That's not my intent -- you
 don't have a monopoly on this what you're doing,
 it's just that you're doing it now and you're
 loudly insisting you're right when you're not. It
 just really sticks in my craw when people make assertions
 rather than asking questions when they don't really know
 what they're on about. It spreads ignorance instead of
 spreading knowledge, and that's not a nice or helpful
 thing to do.
