Lowering engine mouinting point

I'm gonna take a shot in the dark here and tell you that a little 3 degree angle on a driveshaft doesn't matter at all. That's my two cents anyways. Just look at a typical RWD vehicle with a live axle the driveshaft has to move up and down more than 3 degrees. I will admit I've never measured one before but it seems like common sense. I'm sure you'll be fine lowering the engine. The U-joints need a small amount of misalignment anyways to work properly.

Ill say this. If it was my car I'd do it without a second thought.
