Thanks Jim.   I admittedly didn't check previous posts. I am just getting in to the build.  I have been collecting parts and doing research.  I actually started deconstructing/disassembling the car this week. AS you can see, I have a LOT of work ahead of me.


I plan on a build thread on protouring.com  I'm still deciding between an Ecoboost 3.5 twin turbo and a Coyote TiVct 5.0, but I'm leaning towards the latter.  

I needed to know what base "position" was needed to mock-up and install the rear suspension.  As I said, this will be my first build with an IRS so I'm certain to have more questions.

Greetings, 

I am in the midst of an ambitious project.   I am building a pro-touring 1960 Falcon with an SLA front and a rear-end out of a 2015 Mustang.  I admittedly have little experience with IRS suspension, so if you could please humor my ignorance and answer a few questions, I'd appreciate it.    
1)  With the car sitting at ride height,and the rear end installed, what angle should the half-shafts be?  
2)  Is pinion angle critical? I "assumed" that zero degrees was best,
