I used the ECI Bracket and a $20 modern dial res MC from the parts store. The ECI bracket is a bolt on, you do need to drill and tap your stock pedal pivot. If all goes well you can have it installed and new lines run in a saturday afternoon. If you break off the tap in the pedal it will take all day! Dont ask.

 

The ECI bracket says for automatics only...Any advice for somebody with a stick?

 

National Chevy ***ociation has a under floor m/c set up that they say will work with either manual or automatics. I've seen it in their print catalog a couple of times but it doesn't appear to be on the website any where.
