12ax7 spacing

[fossilshark]

Hi all, im making this bracket to mount 3 12ax7s horizontally inside a preamp and we cut it shorter then i would like.

How cruicial is the spacing between 12ax7s? If these sockets are mounted like this will they be too close?

That's do-able

If to cut one other plate Is a pain .... use It

Just rotate a bit the sochets as to don't have the screw holes in the same line (or space willl be insufficent)
