DLOE, as Vernski said, it is accepted that facing forwards is fine, especially with a carb spacer, and since you're already rigged up, I would not change it. Tom Lowe on inliners recommends putting the primaries away from the engine to keep the runner length to mid cylinders as long as possible- but the difference made is not much.
