Default A4-M6 swap master angle

So I have a 95 A4 Camaro I'm putting a LQ4/T56 in. When installing the pedals, I drilled off the bracket to install the master. After everything was said and done, there is a slight angle between the master cylinder and it's rod to the pedal. It's kinda hard to see in the pics, but it's there.

I don't have the engine, trans, or any of the other hydraulics in, and want to make sure this will be ok (or fix it) before I block easy access to the master.

So, my question is, will this be ok, or should I re-do it to try and get it perfect? Will this wear my master out quickly?

Hate to say it, but really the only way to find out is to try it.

I think you'll be fine, doesnt look too extreme from what i can see. The biggest thing to look for is if it gets worse when the pedal is pushed in. Does it bind at all? I believe they are designed to have some play, as the angle changes slightly as the pedal is pushed in.

I kinda figured I'd have to try it. It doesn't bind at all, if it does after I get it all together and bled I guess ill just tackle that when I get to it.

I'll take a pic of it with the pedal depressed, I didn't think of that.

Thanks

Yes, it's flush mounted. Here's a couple more, one depressed, one not, shot from the same angle.
