Hey Steve, I forgot to call you back with those brake pedal measurements. I took a measurement from the pivot point down to the master cylinder rod and then the pivot point down to the pedal. It was 4" and 12.5" respectively. Does this sound like it will work or do I need to make some modifications?

I got mine yesterday and did a mock up test fit, looks awesome and looks like the brake lines will bolt right up. By the measurements you listed it looks like a hole will have to be drilled about 1.5 inches down on the brake pedal arm. Should work perfect.

sure, I will get some up tomorrow. I plan on finishing up my firewall and trying to get my dash back in. I will get some pics of the brake and new hole I have to drill.
