67 Firebird conversion.....clutch pedal? Hello,
My 67 Firebird came with a 326 engine with a 2 speed automatic column shift transmission. I'm in the process of installing a LS1 with a T56 manual transmission. So, of course there is no clutch pedal darnit! I Understand that I also need a new accelerator pedal to accommodate the installation of an accelerator cable for the new engine. I'm now left with only a brake pedal. Instead of potentially ending up with three different type of pedals, isnt there someone out there making a three pedal assembly for my application? Can I get some help with this guys?

1st gen Camaro clutch/brake assemblies are available from restoration parts suppliers and are not expensive. I used the gas pedal and cable from a late model Chevy van ($10 at local junk yard). Modded slightly to fit.
