Randy - you should really consider putting the MC under the floor. The main advantage of that is keeping the paint on the firewall intact. Brake fluid eats paint - and don't even consider silicone brake fluid - that adds to a street driven cars problems. (I already hear the detractors gnashing their teeth, but experience has given me a real hate for the stuff)

The disadvantages of a MC below the floor are that you will need to plumb in a pair of residual pressure valves and it is a PITA to check and fill.
