Hey, Im thinking of putting the booster and master cylinder against the fire wall, and not bothering with the pedal box. Might even just put the master cylinder on the firewall and forget the booster altogether. Still unsure until I get to that point where Im putting it back on.
If anyone has any other ideas i'd love to see them.
Thanks

Check your measurements, then double check them - I think you will struggle putting it there. It might sit on the firewall but the engine bay narrows as you move forward to the struts.

Think you will also need this approved as a modification - putting above the peddle box is a very common practice, particularly among competition cars.
