An example thrust reverser of a gas turbine engine is configured to connect to an aircraft wing via a pylon via one or more thrust reverser mounts located adjacent to a top circumferential apex of the engine according to an exemplary aspect of the present disclosure includes, among other things, a first cowl moveable between a stowed position and a deployed position relative to a second cowl. The first cowl in the deployed position configured to permit thrust to be redirected from an engine to slow the engine. The first cowl forming a portion of a substantially annular encasement of the engine. The first cowl directly interfaces with second cowl of the encasement at a cowl interface position that is more than 18 degrees circumferentially offset from the top circumferential apex when the first cowl is in the stowed position.
