prop lenth

now this should be a quick on. im measureing for my prop shaft. so far i have from diff flange to middle of center bearing 910mm and from middle of center bearing to sprocket adaptor is 515mm =1425mm ....but when measured from diff flange to adaptor is about 1440mm inclueding the deflection needed for it all to line up. first does this sound about right for a indy with 5pw motor and second which measurement shall i go with ???

don't put it directly in line as the bearings will only rock and hence wear unevenly make sure there is a slight kink! this way the bearing will work as designed and therefore wear uniformly!
