Default clutch master cylinder location

im installing my clutch cylinder but im having issues with it clearing my dbw pedal. My question, can i mount the cylinder upside down? like, instead of the fluid feed line being on top, is it ok if its on the bottom? thanks in advance guys.

Doen't sound like a good idea to me.. might end up with air trapped in the system that way !? the way the master is made.. the air would escape or flow up into the reservior, if upside down.. then the air would get trapped in the master ?

What do you guys think ?

Shouldn't matter so long as the reservoir is the highest point.
