Hi & welcome. As this is the place where you introduce yourself and tell a bit about what you drive and here you live just a few of the HAMB members frequent this board.
For technical info & help you will do better posting your question on the Hokey Ass message Board.
Not being either a Hemi or a Model A guy I cannot help with your question.

I would level the carb mounting flange on the in the intake. This requires that the is set close to ride height.

 

I would try to set the rear suspension position versus the frame. You can then set the driveshaft angles. The engine tilt is controlled by getting the driveshaft angles right.
