I need the NOROTOS adapter to use my RHINO mount with either the 3 hole or single hole NOROTOS mount,, but will the the actual NVG line up with my eye correctly, or will it bottom out the swing arm and be pointed up on a angle? It looks as though the mount on a ACH is "flatter" to the face than a FAST that seems to be on more of a angle towards the sky. Or am I just seeing things buy over studying it?

This my set up:
Helmet: OC FAST
Swing arm  RHINO
Optic PVS-14

Your help is much appreciated.

It will line up correctly. Any angles can be adjusted with the tilt lever on the mount itself. Very seldom do we find that someone can't get something adjusted for their eye. Often times, they may have to adjust the way they are wearing the helmet slightly as well.

Eric brings up a great point here many overlook.  Several years ago when Clasky and I were testing out the new Wilcox PVS-21 mount, he had a perfect fit with angle etc. with an OPS Base Ballistic.  When I tried the helmet on, I could not get enough tilt (up) with the mount due to my flat head!  I had to replace the thinner front helmet pad and use the thicker OPS pads that come with the helmet to bring up the "brow" of the helmet. This did the trick lickety-split and I then had enough up angle.

Hope this helps.
