Master cylinder options

[masor]

Alright so here's the problem. 1975 C20. I'm slowly building it into a desert race truck like Mickey Thompson's old C20 "Big Red". Everything is coming together smooth up until now. I'm mounting some shocks with some shock hoops up front. And the master cylinder / brake booster combo is in the way of where I plan on putting the shocks and hoops. I see 73 - 87 style trucks out there using the same setup I plan on using but I want to know what they are using for the master cylinder to clear the hoops.

Are there any companies out there that make a smaller MC and brake booster combo? Or has someone out there found an MC from a different truck and adapted it to work on our trucks? Any info will help! The first picture is where I plan on placing the shocks on my truck. The pictures after that are 73 - 87 trucks with shock hoops and a "mystery master cylinder" and some crazy linkage.

you might gain some clearance using a hydroboost unit. I know they came stock on some of the suburban 2500's. This may give you some side clearance but not really help if it just sticks out to far from the firewall.

That would help but there's a lot of problems still there. The truck he's trying to mimic has tons of engine set-back he doesn't have plus engineering the same pedal ratio into the linkage when you pivot it off angle. If you really want the long shocks, I'd rather engineer the mounts around the brakes than the other way around.
