I have a question about an auto to standard conversion. I searched and didnt find anything. My questions is What pedal parts are needed to convert an auto trans 78 malibu to standard . The only parts I am concerned about are the pedals. I saw on ebay I can purchase the pedals, but no brackets. Can I adapt these to the sheet metal under my dash? Thanks for the help

If you can get the pedals, they will bolt to the bracket already under your dash. The brackets are the same. You will also need the clutch pedal stop bracked and bumper, as well as the longer bolt.

I suggest you read my website: garage-scene.com

There are also many threads covering this topic. Perhaps it is your keywords that are not appropriate?

t5 has a ton of info on his site, makes for excellent reading, especially if you can't find a bellhousing and fork :D

The main things for a conversion are the pedals, and the bellhousing/clutch fork. The tunnel around the bellhousing is tight on the G-Bodies, so you can't just drop in a bellhousing/fork from an older car, the geometry will be off.
