Well....Scratch the reversed lines... It was a lot more complicated than that...

Turns out $750 later....It was the weird angle the master cylinder was moved to so it would clear the fender well headers.

The brake rod was at such an angle, it wasn't able to fully engage or disengage...I was told I was super lucky I didn't have a real incident.

So how did you change the angle of the master

That is where $750 comes in handy, as well as someone who can weld. Maybe I can get a picture.

I had a feeling you'd find that the rod was the culprit. Been there and done it. Hope all else works out and you go kick some x brands butts.
