Problem now is when the engine shifts under load will that still hit the brake reservoir. Filling your engine mounts would help but still, 1/4 inch spacing??? How about converting to the MX6 brake assembly.

I know you believe that you understand what you think I said but I'm sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.

Generally you're giving the engine throttle, which means the throttle linkage is pulled down, which means you have perfectly fine clearance when the engine is shifting under load.
Theissue is going to be when there is no throttle applied and the engine "bucks"
You don't grind off anything that's structurally significant if you do not use the TB spacer. I didn't use one in mine.
I also didn't grind down the throttle linkage. I guess it could be considered "unsafe" but I haven't had any issues so far.
Granted, I kinda don't like the G4 intake. I'll be happy to lose it

Maybe how easy is the mx-6 conversion, any how to for that?
I think i have an 1/2 inch spacing, engine mounts are already filled.
And i can't see the engine bucking that much, especially side to side.
k8 would work, but its not the best solution i think. And i don't have any.
Well it fits but its still very close:
Does anyone know the diameter of the reservoir barbs?
I have the g4 manifold on my k8, I have no problems with it. I grinded some of the arm off and cut a very small portion of the brake reservoir plastic away, I haven't had any problems with it.
Knowing you've spent too much on your car,
yet, you still want to keep modding. -priceless

Just so you know my setup has been perfect and I checked it under load while it was in the shop still with no real movement, granted my mounts have some fill to them but there is still a bit of flex but nothing to be worried about. bolt it on and go!
