Gotta just pull the trigger

[wayno]

So I've been waiting for the new motor mounts for my new porterbuilt cross member and they arrived late last but I've frozen on putting this thing back together. I get the general idea behind pinion angle having spent the last couple of days reading but only want to do this once with all these parts being powder coated - it's a one piece drive shaft and I have the electronic angle meter from HF - so I keep telling myself it can't be rocket science but I guess not having a drive shaft that is to length after having replaced the tranny has me a little nervous. Should I get this cut to length now - or can I get this motor and tranny in - drop the tail down 3 degrees and then just match up the rear later (it's bagged and notched)? what do you think?
