RE: SR-71 Tailpipe alignment design question..
On a prop twin you shim the engines to point OUT away from the fuse so that when you lose an engine the good one is pulling outward and against the direction the plane is now yawing and/or rolling towards.

I know that if I were doing, say a twin B-25, with props pulling, I'd shim the engines with 1-2 degrees of down and 1-2 degrees of inward angle on the engines. Kind of a 'toe in' approach on the engines, if you would.
