Automatic to Manual Swap - a few questions 120-130 1967

Thanks for the response! I'll order a rear main seal and a clutch, that sounds reasonable. And I'll eyeball the u-joints.

As for the pedals, my understanding in talking with other folks and reading through some of the swap threads is that the entire pedal pivot and pedal assembly from the manual car will bolt in. It will leave the accelerator with some degree of clearance. I don't have particularly large feet or drive in boots, so since other folks seem to manage it after the swap without modifying the tunnel, I will give it a try.

I will tell ya this - if it is unbearable with my normal-sized feet, I will document a modification and share it with the 'board. I'm not averse to modifying my tunnel to accommodate it if necessary.
