Default signifcance of ENDLINK PLACEMENT?proper endlinks for setup?

I have a 24 mm adjustable cusco antiroll bar. it is intended for use with an EK/ek style endlinks. I have ITR LCA's. from what i understand i may have to tap the LCA's for the other type of endlinks. i know you don't want the endlinks to be stretched way out but what im asking for is the IDEAL location? would it be best if i can get them mounted to hang perfectly vertical:

I I
or at a specific angle?
/ \

my next question is wouldn't it affect the function of the bar if the endlinks are mounted CLOSER to the pivot point of the control arm? in my head thats tru but maybe someone could clear that up for me. i guess ultimately i have have to measure the width of both my stock bar and the cusco and see if the endlinks will indeed be "reaching" too far in one direction.

o--\-----L (too close)
o-----\--L (just right)

Having the endlinks as perpendicular with the ground as possible would make the most effective use of the swaybar. Yes, where the endlinks mount to the LCA will affect the effectiveness of the swaybar as well.
