Well, looks like it's going to work with little effort. I'd try to locate a factory early-A V8 setup, but since the firewall has long since been smoothed with all holes filled, it doesn't really save me any effort.
After test fitting the later model pivot assembly the pedal rod interferes with a popout in the floor pan/firewall, but with some strategic bending, it'll clear fine. I'll post up some photos when it's installed.
