I just finished having my downpipes fabricated in my 69 Camaro (twin turbo build) and unfortunately due to the tight fit in routing them close to the firewall, they are interfering with the stock mounting location for the brake master cylinder. I am no longer using the booster and running manual brakes with 4 pot Wilwoods on all four corners. I will need to find a way to run the brakes with an offset or remote mounting configuration. I know that Wilwood has a mounting plate that I might be able to use to possibly offset my master cylinder (https://www.summitracing.com/parts/wil-260-8794/overview/) and make the relocation improve the aesthetics of the firewall but wanted to see what others have done when running into situations like mine. Appreciate your inputs!

That link just shows a master cylinder that will bolt in the same location?

Recess or reverse swing them. That would also help keep them away from the heat from the turbos.

Exactly what I was thinking of, thank you!
