Measured from the glass in the centre, that's to the horizontal not the body. ERA has the most details on stuff like this. Check their website.

Make a dual mounting system so when the bottom bolt is removed the window can be laid down a few degrees and bolt re-inserted in to a second hole.
This is a little trick I picked up at West Wylong, I caught a few of the big boys up early in the morning making the modifications before the airstrip flying kilometer
Makes a big difference at high speed.

Based on Kit Car Magazine I believe the recommended angle for Shell Valley cars is 90 degrees
