    Doesn't matter. Just have the tranny pointing down ~3 degrees and the rear pointing up ~3 degrees.

    Currently the drive shaft length is about 15", I may be moving the engine forward, so I could gain another 2-3". I can raise the output some, but I need to watch the carb level if I go too far. With the carb level, I have about 5 deg. drop at the output shaft now.
