Is intersecting at the proportioning valve or master cylinder?
I believe mine cleared but I had the old non adjustable version of the PTFB braces that used thinner tubing. Been a while so I can't remember. The ones now are more beefed up so that might be a problem for you. You definitely shouldn't have problems if you were to switch to manual brakes.
More important thing to know right is where the intersection is.
