Default T56 clutch issues

we have an ATS T56 kit and the hydraulic mounting brackets are designed to be used with the stock master cylinder. The car is equipped with Baer brakes and a corvette C5 booster and master cylinder. This booster is in the way of where the hydraulics are intended to be mounted. We have come up with a fairly complicated cantilever design that is concealed and will work great. has anyone else run across this problem? I would like to know if there is any other alternatives...

I haven't heard of that. Do you have a pic? I'm curious what it looks like.

a picture of the booster that is in the way or a picture of my cantilever design?
i attached a picture of the engine bay, the hydraulics are suppose to go straight through the firewall right under the factory mounting point of the master cylinder. My cantilever would move it completely under the dash, which I am not really wanting to do because of the space and any further potential issues/maintenance. I was hoping for an experienced alternative.

thanks

I would call tyler on this I really don't think you can do much else. Unless you come up some sort of extension piece to connect the clutch pedal to the master. So that it sits below the brake booster. But it sounds like you have a good fix on it already. By the way the bay look very clean
