Arrow Looking for a pic of a 55-57 original gas pedal bracket arrangement

I am converting my 58' cab's gas pedal to a wider OEM 55-57' style gas pedal. Can anyone provide a picture showing the mounting location of the pedal hinge bracket on the toe-board of the cab? I have fabbed my own bracket and would like to attach it in the factory spot.

I changed back to the original pedal in my truck too. Here's a pic showing two holes where the original bracket was mounted.

Question Here's what I got............

These are pics of the custom made bracket I built to accept the 55-57 pedal on my 58 cab. I am not sure of exact factory placement or pedal distance from the floor. I am worried about linkage alignment and also pedal travel. I'd like to see some pics of the original mounting and dimensions. I believe the original mounting bracket is tack-welded to the toe board of the cab.
