This bracket??
This bracket?? 
Ok, I’m using a Tick master and will need to drill the fire wall hole for it. Looks like that crescent piece on the pedal assembly can be used as a template once the pedals are bolted in??! And then I found this black bracket on eBay. How will that fit? Inside or outside of the cabin? And what’s the top holes on the bracket do/ hold? Has anyone used this type of bracket before to do a T56 swap?? Any good ndp would be awesome. Thanx.
That bracket is for earlier GM vehicles to reinforce and positively locate an F-body master cylinder to the firewall, relative to the brake booster. The bolt patterns are not distanced correctly for a third nor fourth gen.
An 02 firewall has a double-sheet metal reinforcement plus the pedal hanger bracket. You can use the crescent bolt pattern to drill new holes in your A4 car.

so my firewall is thick enough that I won’t have any flex? And that half moon crescent shaped doohickey on my pedals works like a template to drill the holes for the master after the pedals are bolted in??
Hope you found your answer by now, but if not, I just drilled my firewall for a T56 swap (and Tick master cylinder). I also took the reinforcement plate off of my donor car. Pictures are in my conversion thread:

Glad it helped! I am actually swapping the entire interior wiring harness from my donor car due to the V6 to V8 swap, so I hopefully wont have to deal with any sort of wiring issues for the manual swap either. I'll be updating that thread as I cut the trans tunnel as well.
