Front shock mounting

Is there anything wrong with mounting front shocks side by side? Images below on gdrive since theyre too big to upload to forum.
Any input is helpful trying to avoid any mistakes that i'll have to cut out later>> Thanks!

All the dual shock set-ups I've seen have them inline front to rear, with the coil over behind and the bypass up front.

Are your outer shocks longer than the inner bypass?

I ask for two reasons: first, you have your coil over mounted higher than your bypass on the fixed end. Second, the inner shock is going to have less distance to travel when compared to the outer shock. If your shocks are the same length, you’ve already robbed yourself travel by having the coil over mounted higher, It’s exacerbated by having the coil further out on the TTB.
