Default help with gear mesh

Building my first trex 450. Sure wish I would have put the motor in before building up the frame! Anyway, I got the motor in but I can't adjust the mesh. No matter what I do the motor moves once I tighten up the bolts and what I am left with is what I think is too tight of a mesh between the pinion and main gear. I am new to brushless systems but it seems the way the wires come out the "top" of the motor, they might be causing some of the issues but I am not sure (hitting against the motor mount?).

Not sure what is too tight but I am use to have just a little bit of "wiggle" between any two gears, there is no wiggle, they are snug, maybe even tight.

-any thoughts or suggestions?
