If you mean, why not lower, then the answer is that if it were any lower than what it is then I would be pushing the clearance for the oil cooler plumbing. Even though the plumbing isn't quiet done yet I did put the 90 degree elbows in place while I was doing the measurements. There are other issues though. One that you mentioned was originality and that was a consideration. Also, there is quite a bit of radiator up under that sloping area of the nose. This pic shows what I mean about the cooler fittings even though it's not a BDR
