Drive up here to Michigan and swap pedals and master with mine. LOL.
Manual brakes tend to have different pedal ratios. Best if you can find a complete truck to pilfer parts from. Most will be from manual trans vehicles, manual brakes tend to be on 'strippos'.
You can buy kits and that may be the way to go if you are going disc on the rear. I 'think' there was a 4 wheel manual disc brake option on early Vettes and possibly later Camaros.
