I got my clutch master cylinder, line, reservoir, and slave today and i'm not sure how to clock the master in the clutch bracket as I thought the reservoir line would be on top but the hose dont seam to lay out that way. Also where does the reservoir get located?

The reservoir is located on the driver side on the right corner under the hood. It should be next to the master cylinder. When ever you bleed your slave, check the reservoir every 3 tries and refill it it with brake fluid. If you don't do that, you will have to completely start over and that ain't no fun.

I figured I could find a set of screw holes that would line up with the res holes, but that dont seem to be the case and if I put it next to the master cylinder it will interfear with the hood hinge, and the fuse box is next to that??? Realestate in that area is tight, it's like trying to park an 18 wheeler in Japan.

total noob reply. Put the reservoir where it will fit and then run hose to it. Use fuel hose.

There's a plate on the drivers side firewall that is used to access under the cowl panel to the wiper. There's two little dents in that panel. Punch out those dents with a screwdriver and attach the reservoir there.
