Manual brake question

[Bill Nye]

I converted my car to manual brakes two years ago. I have a 1978 Cutlass A/G- body. I had a 1979 Malibu manual brake master cylinder then I went to a bigger S-10 master cylinder. The brakes work ok but the master cylinder is aiming uphill. I made my own adapter plate from something I saw on Malibu -racing. This week I ordered a "TRZ" master cylinder adapter, it should level the master cylinder.



Problem is, I moved my push rod to the top hole or I should say top pin on the brake pedal. This was supposed to give a better pedal ratio.( Power brakes lower pin , manual brakes upper pin) The TRZ adapter looks to be set up for lower location.

Any one been there with this, am I making any sense ? Hate to think I threw more money away on a part I can't use. I searched the site and couldn't find anything on this, hope I posted in correct place.
