Thanks for the replies. There is some play in the pedal but I was concerned about ruining the mechanics of it if I cut it. I would need at least a two inch shorter pedal. Right now I have to bring my leg up to the steering wheel and lean my leg to the right clear the wheel. In this town brakes are needed more often than elsewhere I find. As to finding parts like the Hydrovac would be impossible. I cannot even get parts for my 89 Caprice. The only junkyard here caters to post-2010 vehicles.
I tore the meniscus in my right and have bone on bone issues. Had it been my left knee it wouldn't be such an issue. The other option which I hesitate to do is put in power disc brakes and then a total driveline upgrade.
