Also if working on your pedal box area, hint: take off your steering wheel. Makes accessing the narrow space a lot easier.

I'm going remote reservoir for my brakes and clutch. The clutch will get a dedicated reservoir, while the reservoir for the brakes is a good size (probably 500ml) single reservoir with separate ports for front and rear side of MC. With that and a disc/disc proportioning valve (or a gutted combination valve with separate proportioning valve for rear) is there any reason to change the MC?
I completely agree with the recommendation to pull the steering wheel if you're doing any work in the foot box. It's tight enough down there without the steering wheel adding to the degree of difficulty (new Olympic sport?). My steering wheel probably takes less than 5 minutes to pull, perhaps less, so definitely worth doing if I'm diving into the footbox for anything more than something trivial.
