Pascoe fan or not, this is an excellent article on the realities of inboard alignments.
Sorry if it's been posted up here before...it's a good read.

Includes an interesting perspective on V-drives as well.
He also makes a point of the proper clearance between the prop hub and the strut, which is to be no more than 1/2 of the shaft dia. I've always wondered if that is the issue with the 340's that seem to snap shafts behind the strut far too often. Anyone with a 340 ever measure that clearance?
