I have found and purchased a th400 kickdown switch that will mount to the accelerator pedal. Now the car is a 67 chevelle (which I understand that the kickdown switch mounted to the carburetor) and I want to have a pedal mounted assembly. My question is what pedal assembly do I need to do this that will mount in a 67 chevelle?

Thanks

Far as I know, that was a '68-newer deal.

I suppose you could grab a pedal and bracket from a '68--newer and see if it will fit the firewall. For that matter; you could try pedal 'n' bracket assemblies from B-bodies; C-bodies, F-bodies, E-bodies--you get the idea--and see if one of them happens to be similar/usable on your '67.

I did this on a '66 Toronado; OEM used a switch mounted on the intake manifold; I got a pedal, bracket, and switch from a '68 Toro to replace it with. Fit perfectly.

I used a Lokar in my 65 with a 700r.

I would go a salvage yard and find a pedal that accepts the switch. The one I have is from a early 70's Chevelle with out the switch due to the car having a 4 speed. But any GM vehicle with the switch mount will work.Then mount it so that you are comfortable with the placement inside for your foot. The pedal will need to be the cable type, not the solid rod type. This type is much easier to install and give you a much safer operation and eliminate the possibility of the solid rod binding and sticking typically when the motor lifts under acceleration.

This leads to more questions and concerns. First off the firewall has been smoothed and I don't want to have to drill any holes if at all possible, I want an assembly that would bolt right in like a 67 would. I will look into a 68 assembly. Along the same line if I go to a cable will it require a new hole?

Thanks for the help and I will keep working on this little project.

Larry, You can find a T400 throttle pedal assembly in 73-mid 80's Chev/GMC pickups/suburbans with a T400 transmission. ZK
