upside down?

Hi all,
I'm wondering if I need to remove the engine and/or t-20 from my Hustler before flipping it to work on the bottom?
I understand the oil bypassing the rings thing, but, am wondering if there are any other issues with it being upside down?
Would/could it harm anything, maybe in the trans?
I can't think of what would go wrong, except for the above stated oil in cylinders, and, that can be addressed by removing the spark plugs and a short cranking......
draining the fuel tank.
Would I need to drain the trans? does it have a vent that would leak?

sorry if this is dumb, but, I'd rather think about it before doing this.
And, I'm guessing someone here has had thier machine upside down.......grin.......even on purpose.....grin again.......

thanks,
Henry
