We own the orignial blueprint from GM, who orginally made the bracket.
S&P has the one uses the drawing from a CHP article back in 98/99, but the specs given in the picture are off.
It's up to you, the accurate original, or the hand drawn rip off.

PS- Our pricies have dropped on the bracket by quite a bit. (we've finally paid off the rights for the bracket.)

Default bracket templet

I went ahead and made mine today and it worked out great. I made a template if anyone is interested I can email them a copy of it. Just print it out tape it on a piece of 1/8'' plate and centerpunch the the dots and then drill it out to the specs on the template and then cut out the outline and you bend it at the designated place on the template. I made this to work on a first gen camaro but I am sure that it will also work on anything that will have the same bolt pattern. I also made a couple mods to a 4th gen booster to work with it. And if you need a clutch pedal I made some mods to the 4th gen brake pedal that worked like a charm, I would be happy to send pics of this if anyone needs them. What i did was i removed the brake pedal from the pedal assembly and cut it in half fliped one side around, welded it back together and put a slight bend in it just above the pedal to plumb the pedal back up. I know that this sounds crazy but it worked like a charm an looks great. Anyone can do these little projects. After I got the correct template made it only took 30 min. to make the bracket and about that on the booster and then again on the pedal. if you are interested just let me know and I will be happy to send it to you.

I don't know if I'll need the template for my '66 El Camino, but I'd like to see pics of the area and bracket being discussed.

Thanks guys.
