Galaxie engine sat at same level incline as all available engines, the unibody Lincolns and birds are the odd ducks. Had a 68 Continental with the new 385 series 460. The carb spacer plate for pcv was noticeably wedge shaped to accommodate leveling of carb and engine angle. JMO but if you use a bird intake on a galaxie body car it's going to be running down hill from front to back. Just observations over the years.
