I agree that the trans output shaft and the pinion should be at parallel angles. However the typical intake manifold carb flange is at ~3* in relation to the crankshaft centerline. It is best to have the carburetor as close to level as possible. Hence my recomendation to start with the engine at 4*. Here is a link to a thread with others with the same thoughts.

Just trying to keep everyone on the same page.
