absntr - As I have a spare road crank lying around I'd like to use that. You mention I can use outside or inside, is there any preference there?
Also I'd like to stick with the BB I have. So is there a lot of freedom in adjusting chainline by moving only the cog?

Do you know how long the spindle of your BB is? The cog is in a set place - you can't adjust it. What you can adjust is the BB and the inner/outer position of the chainring.

Isn't it 39.1 plus whatever the cog gives you according to that table?

My Level hub is 130 mm. I got the MTB 135mm axle spacers. Dude took them to a machine shop he knew of. 10 or 20 bucks later I had a 130mm hub; as a bro there machined them to the proper spacing. Voila.
