Default Bottle angle?

I put new bottle brackets in, so they would be matching (had one plastic, one steel) and they have little ***** on them so I don't have to use tools to take 'em in and out or kill my fingers with wingnuts anymore. They don't give as much angle as the others did, so I put as many washers under the front brackets as I could before running out of room to bolt 'em to the studs, but it's still a little less angle than they used to have, just wanna make sure it's enough, what you guys think?







Just wanna get as much insight as possible, I figure it will be fine, but wanna be sure.

And these are the only pics I have uploaded of what it used to look like:

well when the wheels come up, it will angle the bottles even more, lol

and then the nitrous will be pushed to the back of the bottle doing none to a buck forty in 9 seconds.

Hahaha, I just wanna make sure it's ok, cuz I wanna get the most out of my bottles, it uses a lot of nitrous on the 300 shot, so I wanna make sure I get as many runs as possible before having to refill since all I have is the 2 bottles.
