V1 Wrong master brake cylinder?

[Ross]

I noticed my 2006 SS master cylinder has a different casting than the videos, and it is longer, which will interfere with the radiator. Also looks like the reservoir relocation hardware won't work either.
Do I need to purchase a shorter master cylinder? Which one?

I think you’ll be fine. I have the same one as you and I’m about 2mm away from the radiator. I plan on putting a spacer in like this one Chad did:

Here is mine before spacer:

Looks like you have the same MC we do. The hardware we have bolted up the reservoir just fine. Ours MC fit but it was close with the new radiator. The old version had more clearance. And quite frankly, the brake booster is made out of fairly thin material and you could persuade the MC up just a bit in the front. Our new booster was bent up out of the box where the MC attaches and I had to massage everything back into place.

Thanks Jeff and Chad. Good to know I don't need to stop and purchase anything. Just a little adjusting and I will keep moving forward!
