Mounted the Clayton Machine pedals today. Everything fit great, no issues. Love the look. Also mounted up the American Powertrain clutch master and adjustable bracket. It comes with full adjustment for the master cylinder angle so you can get the rod geometry perfect and eliminate side loading and possible failure of the master. On the 70 Chevelle the bracket lined up with the factory hole for the manual clutch rod to go through. I decided I wanted more support at the firewall because of the hole, so I bought a Speedtech clutch master bracket, and then mounted the American Powertrain adjustable bracket to that, instead of mounting to the firewall/hole directly. I did remove a very small area on one side of the factory firewall hole to give a bit more rod clearance. Turned out great, rod goes straight into the master, no angles or issues. I do need to build a clutch pedal stop in the future to avoid overextending the piston in the master, they only want 1.12" of movement at the master cylinder.
