Pedal Mounting Auto to Manual - 64 Dodge

[Charlie Brown]

I will be converting an existing 727b to a 5 spd TKX. Car currently has manual brakes. I have a manual brake 4 speed pedal setup from a 65 B. In regards to firewall mounting - a visual looks like that the pedal mounting stud spacing is different. It does not appear that there are existing pre-drilled holes in the factory firewall to accept the manual pedal mounting hardware. Has anyone done this swap and if so, what is involved to do this swap correctly.

After further research, I've been able to answer my own question. Thanks to anyone who may have been thinking to reply.

So, then, did you offer up the information?

Hi,
Sure, there are factory dimples in the firewall which need to drilled out to locate the position of the factory pedals - more than one set of dimples. I was looking at the wrong dimples. Hope this helps.
