I have 42 inches to the off-center back of the seat cushion from the pedal. It sounds like I may have my seat about an inch forward of where yours is - I have an inch clearance to the bulkhead. I suspect yours is against it. I may have my seat located a little too far back for my height and leg length. Possibly moving it about 1/2" forward and going to a 7/8 master cylinder would be a good compromise.

thanks
