When my dad & I first built my car we put the MC on the firewall and hung a pedal under the dash. It worked well for years but looked like crap!! Originally Posted by 40FordDeluxe

Then I decided I wanted to go with a 5 speed instead of an automatic. Thus I added a clutch pedal to the rig I already had.....

Sorry I don't have a pic with the MC attached but it's the GM/corvette style MC. I've toyed with adding a remote fill since it will be hard to access under floor."It is not much good thinking of a thing unless you think it out." - H.G. Wells

No booster just disc/drum master, magnum disc`s up front, seems to stop well, I don`t have any issue with it. Originally Posted by 40FordDeluxe
