Is there an issue with how close the prop back-plate is to the fuse cheeks?

The instructions say 1/4" in front of the cheeks but I am trying to push the engine back as far as possible to help with CG (ST-51 in a 4*-40 ARF).

See photos...I have it about flush to the cheeks. If I push it any more back, I will have to cut the cheeks which I do not want to do. Is flush OK?
