Default What way up to mount a DLE 20 RA

My hanger 9 Sbach has arrived as has my DLE 20 RA
have not got to setting this bit up yet but :---

What i am wondering is should the engine go upside down or on its side:
has anyone actually fitted one & what are the pros & cons of the 2 ways ( if indeed there are 2 ways)

If the answer is on its side would it be at the 3 o'clock or 9 o'clock position when viewed from the front ( to make throttle connection easiest)

Do the mounting holes need a lot of adjustment & if none line up with those already fitted then how do i decide on the correct location?
Presumably the centre of the engine prop shaft has to match centre line of the cowl. But what is best way to establish that? is there a simple way?
