Welcome to OSF buddy.

 

I guess you mean the brake servo tower, if so you can lower it to give yo the clearance you need. I did this only last week and it is fine. Anymore info or help just ask.

you need either a new manifold that is angled up slightly to clear it or remover the master cyclinder tower

thanks for the welcome and even more so for the replies, i've got an inlet manifold that is angled upwards and no brake servo, it's literally just the master cylinder with the fill pot on top of it, with the brake line coming out of the side,

You could use a remote pot if that's the only bit in the way
