motor angle

i am finish welding a downpipe and have a junk shortblock in the car w my turbo manifold and hotside housing. i would greatly appreciate it if someone could tell me the angle of the motor in the chassis. i think i remember it was down to the rear 2 degrees. any help appreciated. i searched motor angle and didn't come up with much.

thanks

wouldnt this number vary based on motor mount health and type? the ppf isnt always installed the same either. the manual shows a process for installing it that includes measuring gaps and things but i would imagine such a number would vary wildly

The old rotaries were 2.5° iirc if you were making a manifold to get a level float bowl.....wouldn't be surprised if it's a legacy bestowed on FDs too.
