Default clutch pedal advise

Alright, need some advise, I am dropping a I/C 12v into my 66 f100 2wd. Truck previously had no clutch pedal and plan on using a Getrag 360, will this work for a pedal and master cylinder for this application?

Summit Racing 14-0014 - Summit Racing® Master Cylinder and Pedal Pro Packs - Overview - SummitRacing.com

If not what do you propose? Don't suggest using the original ford pedal until you have looked at how it works, please. Even going this route will require a master cylinder so I'm still in the same boat.

Thanks in advance. S

Surprised that with the depth of knowledge on this site no one has an opinion on this.

I do! i have a getrag 360 in my 88 f150, i used the stock ford pedal and master cylinder, i used the dodge slave and just ran the ford line into it. works great. I find you get better responses if you have the word "AIRDOG" in your post.

Default You're in Austin, where?

I live in Taylor but work in North Austin. Need to see yours in person, seeing as it is at least "50" better than mine...

Thanks I'm almost 100% sure this pedal and cylinder will work. Everyone wants 75 to 90 for the mechanical pedal setup for my truck and then will need to make it work hydraulic so the Summit pedal seems like a wash.

i was at AUSTIN WRENCH-A-PART on 71 near bastrop, and noticed they had a ton of 80-96 ford trucks there that would have the parts you need, i think i also even saw one with the dash removed with the pedal set up exposed.

cumminsf100, A few years ago I did a 6 cylinder cummins swap into a 1965 F-100. Used the factory Ford pedal, fabbed the push rod bracket onto the pedal, mounted the Dodge clutch master cylinder to the firewall, re-inforced the firewall to prevent sheet metal fatique (eventually leads to cracking/tearing of sheet metal). The clutched worked just as it should. Dan
