Strange manual brake master questions...
I went ahead and put the manual master in today, I know it needs a new hole in the brake pedal, but where are you guys putting it? I've heard ~1/2 above the original location, and some have even posted 5/8...whats the skinny here? Also, does anyone have a pic of how it hooked up when finished? right now it would mount with the heim joint on the left of the actual pedal with a bolt going through there. Ehh...any help will be appreciated.

Thats what I did and they work great. Moving the hole an inch higher gives it a straighter shot to the master cylinder.
