Default Angle

Hello
Well after some time, I'm getting back into my 62 wagon.
I have my 351c with a 4R70 behind it. My question is this
with car sitting on all four tires, what should the angle of the
transmission\engine be, and what what should the angle of the
rear Diff be?
Thanks

There are usually no fixed angles, what is important is the working angles. There are certain limits that are acceptable and anything over those limits can produce problems.

True from what I have read... I think I'll start with 3 deg down
and 1 deg up from the pinion
best
and thanks for the input
