Lines can be bent and things can be pushed over a little. We bolted the Hydroboost on upside down a bit ago. Then we made the lines work. Here is how much more clearance there is between the booster and the valve cover. Basically, about as much as the old dual piston master cylinder:
I don't really like the lines being up like this, but they clear the master, aren't next to the exhaust, won't tangle with the steering shaft and most importantly. They fit!
We still need to cut and install the return lines this afternoon. Then we can move onto the battery tray and putting the radiator back in to stay. Plus the wiring, bleeding the brakes, finish rebuilding the wheel cylinders before we bleed them and get started on the exhaust.
