If I put power brakes on my 1970 Road Runner do I need a different brake pedal ? Or will my standard manual brake pedal be the same?
Thanks,Jim

Pedal is the same, but the rod from the pedal will have to be changed

I have the booster,rod,and firewall plate from a 1969 Coronet.But the rod on the back of the booster is 2 or so inches short than the rod on the car now.
Thanks,Jim

I'm sure you've figured it out already, but use the rod that matches the booster etc. You should be fine. I'm thinking it also has an adjustable tip so the length can be fine tuned.

You need this piece to convert to power brakes and the plate the master/ booster bolts to has the hole moved more to the center.
