Re: I heard a rumor

So.... I was able to find a pedal this weekend from a local member. I pulled everything between the pedal up to the master cylinder from an 83 3/4 ton BBC/auto trans truck.

I got it all home & compared the pedals. As noted in the pic above, the pin is in a diff place on the pedal. But.... that wasn't the only difference:
  • A) The pins on each of the pedals I have are different sizes.
  • B) The clevis/rod end that connects the pedal to the booster are different lengths.

I was sure feeling good about the decision to just pull all the parts 'just in case'.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
