Lightbulb Abs/brake line question

Hey i have a question, i removed my abs pump because it was leaking. i ordered the mazdatrix kit with comes with a block and a rubber hose. i installed but didnt like how the lines were all in the way, then i noticed something. the two lines that get "looped" with the rubber hose mazdatrix gives u, both come out of valve next to each other: like so



i was wondering would it effect anything if i removed those lines and made a new with one (with the line bender tool of course so not to kink it) like this:




i wonder if the short distance will affect anything?

I would think that it'd be ok as that's the same thing you're doing just further down the line. Do you have a link to the kit?
