Default clutch pedal setup

I need to see if anybody has used f-body pedals in a g-body or what have you guys done for a clutch pedal setup. I have the f-body ones just thought i could try and fabricate them to make them work? John B does not have anymore.

You didn't mention a manual "Z bar" or hydraulic clutch setup, however Fbody and John B stuff is hydraulic. I hope to finish an 85 Monte SS w/ LS engine and TKO600 in the next few weeks. It has a hydraulic clutch setup that is a combination of clutch pedals from an 81 El Camino combine w/ an extention tube and Wilwood hydraulic clutch cylinder and hydraulic throwout bearing from Keisler (ask for Richard Johnson for help w/ these parts). The trick w/ a Gbody is getting these parts to clear the existing power brake booster . To accomplish this, a friend designed and build a 0.5" spacer and firewall doubler plate. Works great, but was a lot of work...also you get to spend lots of "quality time" under the Monte dash.
See photos....
