    Curt
     I'm going to the same situation right now with a A model Avid, the father of Kitfox,  changing to a Mark 4 engine mount..which is of set .
     Early Avids ,tails were offset, later were straight, so eather off set engine mount ,or rudder, I'm shining the mt because fabric is good.  If I was you and you're recovering I would go with a straight tail, that way you could put engine mount offset for whatever engine your going to use

    Finally figured out how to put some pictures up ,sorry for the delay! Doug and crew, see you OSH
     I forward the mathematical way between floats and airplanes and the simple sheet with the 2  main measurements, three being the best to 5 inches for the CG to be ahead of the step, CG ahead  of the step and 3 degrees angle of attack! 
    Highly advise using one drive profit with stainless leading edge, I've cut through cat tails , branch is an about everything elsewith no problems
     I'll so I forward a drawing of the trailer that I've built up if you're interested I can give you more details
