If anyone has made this conversion any tips on where to set the bracket before I install the motor would be helpful. | | |

You line it up so the pedal shaft goes through the original hole. The kit is not nessesarily assembled like it goes. It seems I had to take it apart & assemble the parts to work right. They say money can't buy happiness. It can buy old Chevy trucks though. Same thing. 1972 Chevy c10 Cheyenne SuperIn the Gallery Forum | | |

If you have a FAX number I can FAX you the page from the truck instruction manual that shows this assembly. Fred
