None. You'll need a clutch pedal, of course, and either buy a brake pedal or cut down the one you have. You'll also need a limit stop for the clutch pedal. The pedal support bracket is the same either way. Really.
You probably didn't need the slip yoke they sold you in that CPC kit.

i think I used the very same kit. it's for using the T5 with original bellhousing, not T5 bellhousing.
I brought the adapter plate to a machine shop to get the bellhousing drilled and tapped 100% perfect. (better than me with wobbly drillbits *g*)
anyway, in my case the bolts that hold the transmission to the adapter plate were too long. they bottomed out at the bellhosuing, so I couldn't get it all bolted together flat. Make sure to check on that

This kit is for using the original bellhousing - here's MU's quote: " The original bellhousing must be modified for installation. "
Notice in the picture the adapter is adapting the T-5 body to the small-side of the bellhousing. If it was for the T-5 bellhousing, the adapter plate would be much larger, and it would be adapting the larger side of the bellhousing to the 67's engine block.

Y'all are mixed up. The kit shown is for an original bell housing and allows you to put the T-5 behind it using the adapter shown. A T-5 bell housing is a bolt in for a small block with no adapters needed other than you need to figure out how to make the clutch fork work by either going with a cable clutch or using the early style fork and fulcrum and spaceing the fulcrum out 1".
