(1) CNXT thank you (2) likely it'll be in (your) vehicle for a long time so might as well get the angle correct WO the use of angle shims even if you weld it to a non stock angle
live every 24 hour block of time like it's your last day on earth

I asked Dr Diff the exact same question, his reply
THEORETICALLY, IF YOU LEVEL THE PERCHES (44 ON CENTER) WHEN THE PINION IS POINTING UPWARD 8 DEGREES, THE REAREND WILL BOLT IN THE CAR WITH A STOCK PINION ANGLE.
I had the rearend in the car with desired angle before welding. Might as well get it exact.
Sorry, forgot I also used the good Dr's 1 inch relocation brackets. That's the reason for 44" compared to the stock 46". Bottom line, as stated, set-up in car before welding. Then you can also correct the side-to-side offset these cars always seem to have. Stock rears are never centered on the body, leaving a bigger gap on 1 side and rub on the other when you try to stuff bigger tires in.
