Brake reservoir/master cylinders on pedals?

[Flying Scotsman]

Okay, planning ahead a *bit* for brakes...my buddy's RV-8, we put the reservoirs on the brake master cylinders on the pedals, like this thread discusses:



Neat solution, but would it work for an RV-7A with dual brakes? They're easy to access on the -8, through the baggage compartment, but might be a pain on a -7. Plus, with dual brakes, what would be the best way to plumb them?

Anyway, just something we were talking about during parts inventory for the fuselage kit...ideas welcome!

On the 7, I recommend having a reservoir on the firewall. It's a real pain to get down into the floor to check/service them.
