Good eye - I agree if I left the engine there it would be too steeply angled. I had just left it there for the photo.
I'm unable to move the derailleur, but if you look at this view:
Making Progress....
I was able to mount the engine about 1/2" lower on the seat tube than shown above by joggling with minimal modifications. My buddy said I would lose the front derailleur function, or rather it would get in the way, and I would have to remove it. So far so good, but I need to do just a little minor cutting and grinding so the change arm will clear the engine mount stud to allow the derailleur to go into the smallest front gear ring.
