Default Engine placement in the bypass

I know that this question has been asked before but since it did not apply to me I let the answer go in one ear and out of the other!!!

When resting in the bypass, I need to know how far the turbine tailpipe should go into the S/S pipe. I have an AMT Mercury and even if I slide the turbine all of the way back in the bypass the tailpipe is still 1/2" to 3/4" from the exhaust pipe. Should the engine sit farther back? The plans show the turbine sitting in the middle of the bypass well forward of the S/S exhaust pipe. I don't want to cook the bypass....TIA
