I've traditionally done the diff screw head on the left side (driver's side), but have since switched to the Right side (passenger side) regardless of transmission type (3 gear RM vs 3 gear MM and 4 gear MM). Kdub (Kurt Wenger, former AE designer) had this to say on the matter: I think I count as an authority on the matter. I always run my diff screw on the right side (when sitting "inside" the car). I take off the tire and pull the outer hinge pin to get to the adjustment screw.
The right rear is the way the AE manuals state (or used to state). It really shouldn't matter since you go around turns both left and right.

So I ran my B6D last night for the first time at OCRC last night. It was good but, know it can be much better. Current set up is
2-1x6 35wt White springs up front
2-1x7 30wt green springs in rear
Ride high 22mm front and rear
Lay down with brass C mount
AE D mount and AE front bulk head
17.5 with slipper eliminator.
Gearing 31/69
B5M Schelle rear hubs
Car really wanted to push in the turns on power. I was told to drop the front oil to 32.5 and gray spring and this would help.
Any other ideas? Thanks for all the help!

I'd go with the B6D and get the laydown transmission conversion kit ($30) and a gear diff. Best of both worlds and easy to swap back and forth.

His set up has a 3 gear stand up. I did not try his set up due to not having the parts. Last night at OCRC both Losi and AE had all the best out. It was crazy to watch them drive. Spinner was running with new Jconcepts tires and Jason timeing his his laps and others watching. TLR had its heavy hitters out too. Funny thing is only TLR drivers will help out us normal folks. Jake from inside and even Mayfield looked at my car and gave ideas. I would just like to say TLR guys are MUCH more helpful. To be honest I don't even race. I just enjoy going to the track when I can. Some day I hope to try but until then I will just enjoy the hobby of RC! This site has been a big help with everyone one it so thank you.

Alternatively, you could use shorter servo screws.
