another advantage is in handling. having that big six leaning over to the passenger side affects the way these little cars handle.

Where do you sit when you drive, on the tranny tunnel? Otherwise, how much do you weigh, 50 lbs.?

The driver's weight more than offsets the slant's bias. In fact, if you swap in a V8, you'll have too much weight on the driver's side. I don't hear any V8 guys complaining about that...

That's about the strangest rationale for a V8 swap I've heard...
