did you thoroughly clean the frame's threads with a wire brush?

did you apply a bit of grease to the threads before installing the new BB assembly?

if yes to both questions, then you should quit worrying, and go ride the bike.

the inside of that part of the BB assy. is slightly tapered, to allow for proper alignment and a snug fit.

ride it.
