I ordered an upgraded master cylinder from CPP (see link below) to replace the stock one. When I went to install it, the crossmember at the back of the transmission gets in the way. The kit also came with a manual transmission bracket. Has anyone used this key? Could anyone help walk me through the install? Thank you!

Not sure how you could get around it.
