Default Engine mounting?

I am ready to mount my Moki 1.8 on my Hanger 9 Edge 540.
Thats the good news, the bad news is that I dont have a clue how to do it properly.(only the second plane I have ever built)
My Sig 300xs had a center referance point and some instruction on how to go about it, the Hanger 9 manual has neither. In fact the hole in the fire wall is offset.
I suppose I could hold it nose up and kind of position the engine inside the cowl but, I am thinking there must be a more scientific way of accomplishing this task.
So, at the risk of sounding like a complete dolt, that is my request for help.
Thanx in advance.
