need some help please
ok started with the 4 wheel disc brakes and power booster and hit a big snag my drum non power petal does not work, which i expected, however i hit some other problems
[hr]#1 done
[hr]
#2 the rod that holds the clutch anf the brake pedal has a gash in it about 1/4 of the way thru it, like its been rubbing for a long time, i am guessing this can be rebuilt!
#3 the brake pedal rod that holds the master cylinder is shot, it has had no bushing and also has been worn about 1/4 of the way thru it and bent some
my questions
can i swap in a 68 clutch/ brake pedal assembly to work? or do i need to go with a different booster? and get a rebuilt clutch set up? i see there are kits for the non power manual to power manual boosters from scott drake i know someone here cut a auto to work, is that safe?

First of all, need to know what year car you're working with.
Second, that under-dash clutch linkage spring is an over-center assist spring. If you have a diaphragm clutch, you don't need it (and in fact shouldn't have it). If you're using an OE long-style (aka 3-finger) clutch, you should need it to reduce pedal effort.

You might think about something like this....

A cable conversion might be good also.... I like ours....
