Default Removing the vacuum reservoir from a ’68 BB

My vacuum reservoir tank is leaking pretty badly. I need to remove it to have it repaired.

Is there a trick to it?, because it looks like I'll need to move the hydroboost and master cylinder. The "Z" bar may also need to be moved!!

Has anyone done this before? What's the best path for removal?

Thanks,
~Jay

Yep, that is correct. The reservoir is a big unit. You will have to play with it to get it out...may even have to remove the exhaust maniforld or pull the steering column back.
