Default Pinion angle "?"

I am installing a Raytech Crush Collar on my POS 10bolt and I am curious as to what the best pinion angle is for traction issues? (posting here cuz obviously more people here race then drivetrain alone, but will post there as well) TIA. Charlie.

what the hell does pinion angle have to do with installing a ratech crush collar...they are totally independent of each other. But as far as pinion angle...-2 to -3 is best for M6s -1 to -2 is usually sufficient for autos
