Re: Under floor modern booster update.

In spite of a modern booster, I chose to keep the rest of the car 100 percent stock (except the carpet) so the BTV and floorplate will unbolt, lift out and go on the shelf.
The new bracket and booster and a couple of tubes and residual valves goes in it's place. All new items use same original mounting holes everywhere. The pedal has an adapter piece that bolts in the regular location using that saddle and spans the distance needed to line up the new rod. I made it with dimensions that it should also work for the 55 pedal but haven't tried it on one. That may be able to be shortened but may also run into the vertical piece if it is. There is flexibility though so relocating a hole may clear that if it loses an inch.
If the modern unit is no longer wanted maybe by a new owner, all unbolts and the BTV assy goes back in.
