Default Centrifuge position on ISS

I have a technical question for the group. Does the projected location of the
CAM (zenith, node 2) minimize the amount of momentum imparted to the station by
the centrifuge compared to either a port or starboard placement, and would any
difference be significant? Also, how important is its position relative to the
Z1 truss CMGs in this determination? Thanks much everybody. Pepe LP

I can't answer your question right now, but FYI: The centrifuge module has
been cancelled a long time ago.

No, it has not been cancelled. Just delayed.
