Gee, I must live right or something!!!

When I built the chassis for the roadster pickup, I scrounged up a fruit jar style master cylinder from my "old parts bin", and ordered a weld-in under floor mounting bracket and brake pedal. I measured for adequate clearance, and installed an auxillary 1 1/2" square tube crossmember just behind the master cylinder, flush with the top of the frame. As things have progressed, I had a fit of sanity, and decided to do the wise thing, and order a new dual reservoir master cylinder. It just came yesterday, and as soon as I seen it, I got this sinking feeling in the pit of my stomach----look at how much longer that dual reservoir unit is. Well anyway, I just ran out to my ice cold garage and slid under the car on my creeper, and guess what!!! The new master cylinder clears the crossmember by about 1/2", and I can still get the top off to fill it.---Put that one down to good luck, not good management.

Heck, lots of times it's better to be lucky than good, huh Brian???

I personally prefer both. Makes like a lot easier. But still, that does take a good eye. Congrats!:D

techinspector 1---you are a silver tongued devil. I would like to take credit for "thoughtfull engineering, sharp mind, etc." but in this situation it was just blind good luck. I have had it go the other way sometimes too----my luck goes both ways.
