Thanks Art! 1st through 4th are working well so far. The one thing I've found it that sometimes I can engage reverse without pulling up on the shift lever. This is problematic because I'm usually tolling and trying to go for second. :yikes: Not fun grinding gears on a brand new trans. I've read up on it and I've found that I need to keep moving the shift base to the left until that goes away. 

 

The car is currently taken apart while I clean up the pedals and install the roller pedal. 

 

Where I am so far - 

 

Pulled back the coco mat and removed the two 17mm nuts. Lots of junk in there:

The break pedal piston and the funky little clip that holds it in:

The old accelerator pedal arm:

Gunk and goop on the pedal assembly:

Blown apart for cleaning:

The clutch pedal is an odd arm. Not sure what's going on with the sideways pedal and what's with this nutty little tab?! Al... Al... Al... what were you trying to do here?

All cleaned up and almost ready to go back in. I just need to clean up the pedals and apply the pedal covers.

Ready to go back in!

Can't wait to try out the new pedals. I hope they work as good as they look.
