GM Had Strikers on the Assembly Line

---

P.S. :   On stock disc brakes, how does the pedal contact the rubber bumper and brake switch. As my conversion now stands, I have a 1 inch gap from the bumper to the pedal. Is there a bracket or something that moves the bumper closer?

J._. :   If the rod that connects to the brake pedal from the back of the master cylinder attaches to the lower hole on your brake pedal, then you are in need of a spacer. Chevrolet calls it a "striker". If you have access to an assembly manual, this spacer is clearly shown. Unfortunately, it is no longer available from Chevrolet. The good news is that you should be able to find one on any 1967-1972 A-body. I uncovered this information when I converted to disc's on my 1967, SS Chevelle.
