In a recent publication, we introduce the lift force as a common source toaccretion disk tilt that is likely relevant to accretion disk systems. Lift isgenerated by slightly different supersonic gas stream speeds flowing over andunder the disk at the bright spot. In this conference proceeding, we focus onwhether the average white dwarf has enough mass to prevent a disk tilt innon-magnetic Cataclysmic Variables (CVs) with accretion disks. Assuming a whitedwarf mass of 0.6M$_{\odot}$ and a disk mass of 10$^{-11}$M$_{\odot}$, we varythe secondary mass to establish theoretical minimum mass transfer rates neededto induce and maintain a disk tilt of four degrees around the line of nodes.For mass ratios in the range $ (0.13 \le q=M_{2}M^{-1} \le 0.45) $, weconfirm that the secondary mass does not contribute significantly to disk tilt.We also confirm that the average white dwarf does not have enough mass toprevent a disk tilt. We find that disk tilt may be likely in low mass transferrate systems such as CV SU UMa's.
