Tesla Multi Mini Capacitor Advice

I am not sure if this is the appropriate place to post this.

 

I have been into Tesla coiling for 4 years or so now.

 

I just recently revamped my medium sized Telsa coil so it would be much more efficient. I just need to know if anyone here can help me about HV capacitor advice. Here are some pictures of my capacitor.

It the right value and everything I just need to know if anyone here believes that the leads are perhaps too close together.

 

The top and bottom leads are in direct connection with the the HV Transformer. So there is potentially 15kV at the left and right of the capacitor. I hope there will be no problems with arcing across the leads.

 

Thanks.
