    Brake reservoir distance ?????

    Anyone have a measurement for how low the top of the reservoir had to be to clear the hood? Mine is right even with the top of the firewall panel and I know it touches the hood. I don't have my body on right now so I can't really get a good measurement. I'm going to do a duel reservoir with the fitting out the back of the reservoir instead of coming out the bottom.

    Here’s mine. If I had the side panel off I could see how much clearance I have.
