Well you made one boo boo...should never install the diagonal or cut the hole until you are absolutely sure where it goes. One dimension we need to answer your question: What is the distance from the face of the primary to the back of the tube? This will help determine the length from the face to the center of the secondary. Then calculate your focuser racked in heigth + 1". Then add the point of focus to the center of your secondary. Many variables to consider.
