im trying to figure out the pedal cituation in my model-A..i have a set of 36 pedals a set of 37 pedals and a set of 49 f-1 pedals...im thinking of using the 36's becuase they are in really nice shape and a bit shorter then the f-1's...the problem is i have no idea how they should mount...like what angles and stuff...i would be welding my own points on for the brake rod to go to the master cylinder and such...so im lost as to where to put it...and theres not much room since i channeled the car 4 inches...does anyone have any ideas on this or pictures to help explain or a website or anything...

thanks

You need to find an old Ford and measure the floorboard-toe board angle for starters. The pedal follows that up, and so if you get that angle you have the info needed to orient the pedal for use. I suspect old Fords probably all have about the same angle there, but don't know for sure.

Zach - I am in the middle of setting up the pedals in my 32. I am using 36 car pedals and a Mustang dual resevoir master cylinder.

I will get some pictures and measurements for you this weekend.
