I am afraid there is no simple answer to your question. There are so many variables involved and it mainly comes round to what make of chassis
you are running and what general engine position suits that chassis.My first recommendation is that you contact the chassis manufacturer and ask them how they set their works karts up.If this brings no joy then a walk round the paddock at your next race meeting may help by noting down details & photographing how other drivers,of the same make of chassis, have positioned their engines.Note down who gets the best race results and set your engines to a similar chassis position as theirs.This will be a good starting point from which you can fine tune the rear end of the kart to your liking during practice. In order of importance the main things to get right are the rear wheel spacing, seat position and then the engine position which after the wheels and seat have been set generally are both set as inboard as possible to the seat.These settings are what have suited our kart and other drivers may have alternative comments but I hope it may point you in the right direction.
