Hello fellas. I am trying to figure which direction I want to go for pedals on my '69 z/28. I planned on not completely smoothing the firewall and am just going to use the DSE bolt in heater delete play to be as least intrusive as possible. I bought Wilwood pedals, and machined a stainless mount with ARP hardware to run my 3 master cylinders (front brake, rear brake, clutch). I bought 2 3/4" masaters for front brakes/clutch and 1 7/8" master for the rear brakes. Part numbers 260-13619 and 260-13621. After looking at it, there is no good way to throw these pedals up there without doing some somewhat major fab on a car I'd like to leave the firewall intact on.

I went back and bought clayton machine muscle car pedals that supposedly just drop in, but am trying to figure out how to do this with a balance bar like I have on the wilwoods. I'd ideally like a drop in unit, but am curious as to what others have done in similar cases with manual brakes needing 3 MCs.

Thanks in advance!!

cnc brakes has a tandem unit that mounts like stock and runs a balance bar.

Thanks for the reply Justin. I didn't see an email address, but saw a phone number on their site so I'll call them today. Looks like its the street rod 240 series.

I know there are a lot of people not running a booster, and after doing some searching it looks like a lot of people run the big wilwood master also. I tend to buy things a few times around, so if I have to change master and pedal setups it's not the end of the world. As noted earlier, I have two separate masters for front and rear brakes, instead of running one with a prop valve. If this isn't the best way to go, I'm open to suggestions. I need to stick with my 13" rotors/wilwood 6p front/4 p rear calipers though.

Thanks again
Nick
