Pedal Problems!!
hey y’all, I need a little help here! I am in the process of swapping a built 6.0 and Tko-500 into my 1962 Impala (currently 350/th350) and I’m not sure what to use for the pedals. I’ve been all over the Lokar catalog and seen their drive by wire setups, which are slick, so I think that’s covered, just not 100% sure on where to go for brake/clutch. Also worth noting that it’s going to have a hydraulic clutch.
The options I’ve found so far include:
Source a stock clutch/brake setup from a junkyard ‘62
Willwood’s super trick race pedal set
Use a Lokar “direct fit” setup from a different car, ie: 67-72 C10, and fab up the mounts to make it fit. (They don’t have a direct fit setup for 62 B bodies)
Anybody have any insight here? Any fool proof pedal setups? Any reason NOT to use a stock setup?
Thanks!
