Torque tube angle?

Setting up a new to me midget and trying to fit my seat in. Was looking at the torque tube angle as it is blocked and was wondering what that angle should be? Is there a standard to shoot for either while blocking the car or even sitting it on the ground with the driver in it?

I'm going to say 5-8 degrees with you in it, you have to have some, but u-joints have to go through a lot, and considering the RPM, they get unhappy pretty quick. Bob
