Im building a model a and getting ready to put 40 ford brakes on it. Im running a flat 4 with the stock trans and pedals need to figure out how to mount the master cyl and can i weld brackets to the stock pedal for the brake rod? any pics or info would be a big help. Thanks

Several Aftermarket outfits sell underfloor systems, check out their Pics and see if you can make something similar.

Some very vague third hand info: The '40 cylinder can be mounted on the stock center crossmember and activated by an existing rod location. Haven't done it myself, dont remember details. Vince F on Ahooga.com site posted some pics of this long ago.
