Just asking the question, what would be the use of an tilted engine? Not only does it raise CoG, it also adds different stress to the chassis and the whole car, as well as requiring a new rear suspension, floor, diffuser etc. etc.
Apart from a possible better suspension geometry there are no gains to be made from this.
