I need some help. I'm putting in my Hydro boost and the clutch master. I have a Wilwood clutch master from the Kiesler kit. My hose connection for the throw out bearing is right up against the bottom of the Hydro boost. Has anyone else used this set up and did you have the same problem?
I'll post a picture of the master in a few minutes.

Its tuff to see in this picture but its right behind the green plug on the boost unit. The slanted connection, its for the line to the throw out bearing.

as in it will not bolt up or you cannot run a 180 degree fitting?

In the top picture there is a fitting going into the master because the master doesn't have a seat for a flare the adapter goes in then the line with the flare goes into that. Its more than a 90 degree turn on the hose but still hits. I'm thinking of moving the master down a little but I'm not sure it will line up straight with the pedal mounting point. I was wondering if any body had this set up from Keisler and had the same problem and what they ended up doing.

Easiest thing to do is turn the master up side down or slightly clock it. I think it would bleed just fine if that is a concern.
Next would be get a different style master. I E, Tilton with the same bore and stroke.
Move the entire unit to the left enough to clear and modify a mount on your pedal.

Thanks Payton! We got it in today. I had to put the line on first then install the master. I moved it over to the left just a bit while keeping the push rod straight. The bleed screw near the throw out bearing ends up facing down like Kiesler said it should be. I know it sounds back wards. Thanks again.
We also put the steering column in temporarily. Tomorrow we try some wiring with my American Auto Wire update kit. It looks well made and all labeled.

The AAW kit is the best on the market. Will take a time consuming job and make it much easier.

When I looked at it I was quite impressed, plus my buddy Spaceman is an electrician and he's already done a few cars from scratch. So I have plenty of back up.
