I bought a replacement floor pan, front cab mount channel. The angle on the floor pan and the angle on the end of the cab mount channel are different, with the cab mount channel being more angled than the floor pan. What should the angle be on the floor pan along the side where it changes at the front door post.

The critical thing would be the position where the body mount bolts go.I believe the Factory Assembly Manual has dimensional information for the floor of the body. I know it has locations of bolt holes, etc on a side view. Check the FAM for those critical dimensions.
For the angle of the tabs on the end of the body mount channel, it's likely going to be "beat to fit - paint to match". That's going to be my task come next spring when I pull the body off to repair the rusted out floor.
