It's not just the pinion angle as measured. It's the trans output shaft angle matching within 1° to the pinion.

The pinion angle could be @ 3°..... If the trans is within 1° of that it should function w/o vibrations that cause wear.

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.
