Vendo 144 vending issues

I’ve finally gotten my 144 reassembled and was excited to put bottles into it.  I purchased 4 cases of 8 oz bottles, and started loading my machine, to find out that the bottles can sit side by side in the vending columns.  

Have they changed the size of the bottle?  It does appear to be thinner glass than what I remember.

It looks like it could vend cans, but when I loaded it with cans, they become stuck and will not fall.  

Any suggestions?

Thanks

Dave,

The 8 oz. glass bottles should work fine.
I'm not exactly sure what you mean by the bottles stacking side-by-side...
