Pinion Angle Opinions Needed

After lowering, my rear end pinion angle is 6 degrees up. My engine is at 7 degrees down. Is this ok? I am going to try to put new cab supports on and shim them a bit to try to get the motor at less of an angle (like 5 degrees). Would this be ok? I have read a lot you want to be within 1 to 2 degrees between the rear end/engine angles.

Anything more than that I am going to have to either get new motor mounts(the Dingo Slider related issues strike again) and move my perches or start hacking up my firewall. We mashed the pinch weld area up where the floor meets the firewall but this is where the trans is hitting. We have room behind this to move the trans up.
