Re: Master & Booster Angle
My original drum/drum setup had the master pretty much dead level. You're looking at a car setup with the thing angled that high to clear the engine. my aftermarket disc brake upgrade has the master pointing down at a slight angle, not level like original. Just look at the different setups in this thread, and I think you'll realize that you have nothing to worry about.

Re: Master & Booster Angle
The stock location of the power brake booster and m/c always bothered me. I'm going to try a Capt. Fab. bracket and see if it will clear my shift linkage under the hood. This will make the m/c level and closer to the firewall and a lot more out of the way. Should be mocked up by the weekend and i can give a better answer.

Re: Master & Booster Angle
I'm running a wilwood setup (master, Prop Valve, spindles, brakes, rotors, etc...) and it's pretty tilted.
So much so, I'm seeing coating damage to the master from front edge brake fluid spillage. (not to mention the rear compartment isn't as full as I think it should be in this configuration) I've been thinking about putting some washers at the firewall studs to level it out some, honestly. |

Re: Master & Booster Angle
I had enough time to mount the booster m/c this will give you a general look at it. The factory mounting and linkage bracket points the m/c down on power brakes. Like Steeveedee said the non power m/c set level thats what mine came with. The 11" booster might have a clearance issue with the column shift linkage. Maybe that's what the factory came up with for the clearance issue? The set up you have under the o/p hood looks right.
