Default 72 Chevelle LS2 pedals

First off I am putting a LS2/T56 out of a GTO in my Chevelle, what is the easiest way of mounting the DBW pedal and the clutch pedal in it? The car was originally a automatic transmission. All help is appreciated!

Your car already has the spot for the clutch pedal. It’s just beside the brake pedal up on the same bracket. My Chevelle was an automatic car as well. You’ll need to purchase a clutch pedal and bushing....it’s been 6 years or so since I did that part of my car....I don’t remember all of what’s involved. Crawl under there with a good light and you’ll figure it out quickly. Seems like both pedals ride on the same hinge pin? You want to get both a clutch pedal and a brake pedal for a manual car. The manual pedal is much narrower and gives your feet room to move around down there. You can get them from places such as YearOne etc. Don’t forget to get the actual rubber pedal covers, or whatever you want to put on the pedals.
Mounting the DBW pedal will require a weld-on bracket. I made my own, but they can be purchased pre-made from DSE and other places.
