Do i need to reroute my rear brake line to install duals?

I have a 87 Notch 4cyl auto i'm getting ready to do v8 swap on, and someone told me i might have to reroute my rear brake line going to the back to install dual exhaust during my swap. Is there any truth to this, or is that only on older fox body stangs?

I figured there would be many people here that have done 4cyl -> V8 Swaps that would be able to tell me...

I put duals on my 83 5.0. It was factory single pipe, and I put Long Tube headers, o/r h pipe, and flowmaster mufflers on and I didnt need to move anything. All I needed to do was put new exhaust hangers on it.
