Is this the wrong set up?

I just put this master cylinder on to replace a leaking dual reservoir master cylinder,ever since that when the rig warms up i build up pressure in the brake system and my brakes drag.My question is ,is the fluid heating up because of how close the line that feeds the front end of the master cylinder gets to the carb/manifold,causing the brakes to drag?

Did you adjust the rod between the pedal and the cylinder when you did the install?

He really needs to adjust both the pedal-to-booster rod and the booster-to-cylinder rod.
Good call, though.

Why do my brakes drag after I did a master cylinder or booster swap? <---- this is a link

No.

I do not know about that brake MC but when I converted my ’78 rear drums to disk I installed an early '90s LC MC and there was no adjustment needed to the rod. I did have to adjust the brake pedal to the FSM.
