LS Swap Pedal Bracket - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Did anyone on here order an pedal bracket from Hart_Rod that is for a 67-72 c10 and modify for 73-87?

I got one from him and looking to try to use for my ls swap but am not a fabricator and looking for some help on how i can make it work.

I did not use his bracket for my swap, but I know he is a stand up guy. I would say that you could look through the thread for the bracket and also give him a PM on here. I don't think it is a very difficult install though...
good luck & keep us posted on it.

what pedal are you using?

do you have throttle by wire or cable?

if its cable, you can simply use the OEM LS truck cable and it fits like a glove

Holley sells a bracket. Kinda pricey for a chunk of flat plate steel.

I'll probably design my own once I get to that stage of my Gen4 swap.

Im not sure why you need to buy a bracket, a flat piece of steel works fine. My k30 setup is attached. I haven't driven it yet but it feels solid and the pedal has full movement but needs to be moved a bit to the right for better a fit. I may not keep this as im not sure it will work with my current 8.1 vortec setup.

My first swap in a 77 k25 I used a gmt400 diesel pedal, it bolted right in, no bracket needed. That pedal is to sensitive for my liking, which i why im thinking about a dbc setup.

I'd prefer to stay with DBC, but I'm swapping to a GEN4 LS2 from my Gen3 5.3, so I have to use DBW. I can easily design a bracket and cut it on my plasma table, it doesn't have to be fancy.

What pedal is that? The monte carlo one?
