    Dave,
    I put the MC on the firewall for a couple of reasons.
    1 - Had a Chevelle front clip put on and boxed the frame.
    2 - Wanted a hanging pedal to better seal the floor.
    3 - Wanted a power booster for the Wilwood calipers on the Jag rear and yet to be determined front calipers. I want Wilwood calipers there too but have not put out the $$ yet.

    Attached is a picture of the booster without the MC.

    Looks great - and a Ford in a Ford !! Way ta go

    Why not consider Wilwoods all the way around, including a nice Wilwood aluminum MC. With the booster "hung" out there, you should not have a problem with drool out of the back of the MC.

    I have 4 wheel Wilwoods on mine - polished in the front and black in the back (which I actually prefer), but with a 'vette MC.
