Default repostion master cylinder resavoir?

Can you reposition the resavoir? My new intake manifold is paper shy of hitting it, and the car isnt even running.

IF you could some how move it, the hard lines would be a biznatch to move also.

thanks for the link'age post

Its not a drag car, this is a daily driver/drag for fun. I just thought Id also mention its the resavoir thats hitting, not any lines or the cast part of the MC. Maybe smaler slimmer container? Is that possible?

what if you put a tube in there just to space it up a 1/8" or so?

you could try a single cam resorvior. not sure if it would fit your master though.

no you would need 2 downgrade to the smaller Brake Booster to use the smaller 13/16ths civic MC...not reccomended...

what IM is that anyway?

What motor in what car?

That notch that comes out of the IM. Grind it down until it wont hit than weld it close. Best bet. Or find a way to make the resorvior higher like a spacer.

That IM looks like a Victor X IM???

to answer your questions...

1. Its a REVHARD manifold (supposely they bought/copied the victor design)

2. I could grind down the manifold; like I said i thought the hole is just for the direct port for n2o

3. 1991 OBD0 Integra

The object of making this work is not to grind or fraborcate anything btw.


Im going to see if i can space it/re-route the container. Theres got to be a way

What makes the tilton kit RACE only? Why couldnt i use it for daily driving?

Whats the disadvantages using a smaller break booster?

tilton is not a race only stuff, they have street aplication too.

in general smaller brake parts = to less braking power... generaly speaking

If you dont want to grind, how about loosening all the bolts to the IM and then pushing it away, you may get another 'paper' worth of space
Or how about something like this to keep it from moving too much? http://www.evasivemotorsports....MC-BR

never thought about loosing the bolts and pushing it the other way. that manifold is a universal fit so some of the bolt holes are slotted rather then a hole.

that MC thingy; they didnt make it for my car :*(

Yeah seriously, I bet the intake runners and head ports aren't anywhere CLOSE to matching up.

Port-matching ownz j00

not all of the holes are slotted, i was wrong


Just the ends are different due to the gsr head vs b16/c5 heads

the outlaw gasket matched up well with both sides of the gasket. I didnt think it was worth paying someone to touch up 1mm's of space. Id call it perfect and im pretty ****.

ummm... Im going to try and get this container repositioned. I bet i can figure something out. Id hate to saw something up
