Default DBW set-up pics...1st Gen

Does anyone have good pics of how they rigged their pedal set-up. The pedal I got with my engine definately won't work....looking for other pedals/setups.

I made a simple steel mounting plate and bolted it to the studs from the brake booster. The pedal is from 2000 corvette I believe.

Hope that helps

Mine was originally from a 05 2500 so it was way long and way angled. I bought what I thought was just a pedal cover set off of ebay and it came with the GTO dbw pedal assembly so I cut off the goat pedal arm and the truck arm and bolted the goat pedal to the base of the truck unit and used one bolt on the bottom of the pedal base and a straight piece of flat stock from the top of the pedal assembly to the front of my dash. It sounds funky but It is all out of sight and looks clean.

I used a new set of clutch/brake pedals from t56kit.com when i bought their slave cylinder bracket. I also cut about a 1 1/4" from my master cylinder pushrod and rewelded it to get it the right length. My gas padel is the factory pedal and should work just fine with my carb.

Woops. I have the Opera broswer and open a dozen or so threads at once and click from page to page to reply and totally missed the title of this one. Sorry.
