Can't say on the linkage as mine's an automatic.
I originally eliminated the prop valve bracket and moved the valve rearward mounting directly to the frame to clear the headers when I was running front disc only. It was that way when I bought the car. I just had to open up a mounting hole on the new prop valve body slightly to align with the holes already in the frame from the bracket. When I converted to 4 wheel disc, I moved the proportioning valve up under the master cylinder anyway as that was how the disc brake lines were routed from Inline Tube.
Oil filter is accessible through a nice window in the header tube arrangement though.
This is the only pic I have of the relocated proportioning valve setup with the original set of headers. That's a battery cable (starter) hanging in between temporarily during the install. so the clearance is about 1/2" there.
