Which Accelerator Pedal?

The cab on my 70 C10 does not have holes for the ball studs for the accelerator pedal. This leads me to believe it is a late 70's cab. I currently have the linkage for a pedal that mounts to the floor.
Would I be better installing the ball studs or switching to the 71 accelerator assembly? The engine has a Sniper EFI and a TH 400 transmission with a Lockar kickdown switch.

Thanks

By far the later floating pedal unless you are looking or something that looks original.

I just installed a application where a bell crank was used for throttle. Connecting to the 1972 pedal was so simple it was almost disappointing. No thought or effort needed.

There is a hybrid approach that I plan to use, 71/72 style floating pedal on earlier throttle setup. https://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/...40#post7871640
