Let me/us know what happens,..
Thats on my list when I can get someone to do that. I tried taking a video but it was crap and I didnt see anything.

Just out of curiosity I checked youtube and there are a bunch of firewall flex videos for the master cylinder. Some hardly noticeable and some a lot. I don't know what "normal" is I guess.

Knowing how the SVX is built there is no thing NORMAL about it!
I am only guessing but the firewwall flex that you saw was from Neons, Hondas, Hyundais, etc.

Re: Master Cylinder Brace

So I was able to get some decent footage of the flex I am getting in my car. Its definitely not as bad as other make/models but enough for me to ask the question in the first place.
