Yes, once it gets extremely low the factory angles will be compromised. Flipping the trailing arm mounts is a good idea & if you can fabricate your 'bridges', you can re-weld new trailing arm mounts to also improve pinion angle.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
