Accelerator pedal measurement - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**Wgesnerjr** · 03-07-2016, 07:05 PM

I am working on an LS 5.3 swap into our 85 C10. Going to be cutting the new LS DBW pedal and welding on the original accelerator pedal arm from the 85 truck.

The only problem I'm having is that the stock pedal was in my truck, just not hooked to anything as the engine and cable were long gone. When I got it, the pedal just laid on the floorboard. So I don't know where the pedal was in relation to the floor when the engine was in there. I want to weld up the new set up so it has the same exact travel as the stock one did.

Can anyone with an 85 and a 305 4bbl give me a measurement from the end of the pedal arm to the firewall? Even if it is to the firewall padding, that would help me place it in the right spot.

Thanks in advance

Jay
