Pinion angle is a relationship between the output shaft of the trans, and the pinion. When you launch your car, the rearend will "wind up". Ideally, when the rearend does "wind up" you want a straight shot between the output shaft and the pinion. This would put both front and rear u-joints completely square with the driveshaft. This is where you have the most efficient power transfer.

Thanks , it sounds like I can't do anything then till I get the engine in the car. Then I can check where the engine/trans is at.
That'll happen is couple more weeks. I'll keep you posted .........
