How far from the engine can my servo be? Building mid engine out of front engine car. Hope to leave servo where it is and connect with a stainless or ally pipe. Will that work? Cant see another way to do it.
Any thoughts?

Don't see why it should be a problem. The servo body serves as a vacuum receiver anyway. You might consider adding a second NRV at the engine engine so your link pipe adds to the vacuum volume, but probably not important.

Just a thought to consider, mines in the boot with an electric vac pump. Works fine.

Not an issue , I had to run a 20ft hose from my van into the garage to test a clutch servo on my non running new build . Ran a pair of 6.5 inch remotes on my last midi car with bias brakes with 1/2 steel tube from front to back with no problems

It makes no difference where the servo is, as long as you piping is leak free and your one way valve is in good working order and as close to the servo as possible.

Thanks lads, I thought it would be ok, but good to check. Could always go with no servo, but might as well use it if I can.
