337 viewsSpirit-level on breather to show that it (along with my engine) is at a slight angle. Thus, oil will drain back down into the case through the breather stand (the tower the breather is bolted to).

337 viewsSpirit-level on the shift plate on the shift tunnel to show how much my car is raked. As you can see, it's very mild so the engine is pretty close to the same level as the pan.
