[bad66chevelle454 at aol.com]

 Do you have the plastic bushings in there?

The shaft that goes through the bracket has a lot of slop in it as does the 
brake pedal.

You can find them used, 64-66 are the same, 67 IS different. They do 
  reproduce these, and I've never heard of anybody having problems with them. 
  When I checked them out, they seemed like good pieces. I wonder what's so 
  different about yours that gave you so much trouble? I'm curious. Like I said, 
  that part of my brake conversion was simple. I don't remember there being any 
  problems.

Thanks but I got it adjusted. I had to take out the whole pedal assembly 
  and it seems to be a piece of junk. does anybody make a decent pedal set for 
  this year?

    like. Just let me know.

I'll look and see but The last time I tried I couldn't get to the end 
    of the pin. The only way I could get to the clip was with a long skinny 
    screwdriver.

You 
      may have to move the pedal forward or backward to get the pin out. There 
      is a hole along the plate that you can remove the pin through.

I had a Willwood master cylinder installed on my 66 chevelle w/non 
        power front disc/rear drum. The brakes lock up after about a mile of 
        driving. I checked the brake pedal rod and it has been adjusted all the 
        way out which I'm pretty sure is what is causing my problem. I tried to 
        adjust the rod under the dash but I can't get to it. Can I take the 
        master cylinder loose and adjust it from under the hood?
