Aircraft application to get the crankshaft higher in the airframe for prop clearance without obstructing the forward view by having cylinders hanging out of the cowling. Obviously a dry sump engine, last time this was done was probably in the 1940's sometime, maybe up into the 50's, but was very common in the 30's.
