I am not planning on changing the pedal but one could remove the shiny pedal cover and rubber inserts and put the stock pedal on it. Looking at the back side of it the cover part is held on with a couple of rivets.

Or you might use that idea and fab your own bellcrank setup that worked a cable using a shortened stock rod to work it. I'll dig the doodle pad out and draw up an idea in a minute.

While my engine is out being rebuilt, I too bought one of these Locar knock off units. I'm waiting on my engine to be returned and then after I install it locate the holes necessary to support the pedal mechanism through the firewall. Do you have any photos of where you located the pedal mechanism either on the firewall or on the cab inside?
