I was told an angle finder on where the carb bolts to on the intake is at the same angle as the tranny tail shaft on a 350 auto. Is this correct?
It doesn't look right.
If it is wrong, where do I place my angle finder on the tranny?

Thanks
Colin

If you place your angle finder on the base of the intake where the carb sits it should zero out. The intake is machined so when your angle finder reads zero on the carb base there is about 3* of tilt to your mtr/trans which is the correct angle. This is where you get your angle for the mtr/trans...Joe

Put your angle finder on your starter motor. It is in line with your driveline.
