Pretty sure those are 30 degrees, since the front 30 degree blocks have perpendicular hinge and king pins.

so If I wanted to get it to have 20 degrees of kick I'd need to bend it and shave the top accordingly so the brace would bolt flush at a 20 degree angle instead of the stock 30 degrees?

Where did you find that video of me :D

Reducing kick would take some work to get the top plate to work right, but it sounds like you have the right idea. You'd also have to adjust caster accordingly.
