I have a very good model B 4 cylinder motor and syncro transmission that I would like to install in my 31 model A coupe.
The model B set-up I have is a complete motor with transmission, however I notice there is no brake pedal assembly like there is on the model A set-up.


Can any of you experienced guys tell me what I need to obtain or how I can make the conversion. ? is there a pedal kit ? who would sell it ?


What other things would I have to think of that is not obvious ?
 
Bert's used to have the kit but I don't think they have it any longer.

You are also missing a place to attach the wishbone. That should also come with the kit to install the pedals. Try "Clings" for the kit.

The bolt holes in the flywheel housing are in a different place also. using a B float a motor kit solved this, but I think the availability is now in question.
 
1, Cling's sells the kit (with aluminum adapter) for installation of V8 transmissions.

2. The last that I heard, Berts manufactures and sells the kit for MODEL B transmissions.

This is the kit originally developed by AC&R Inc.

At least this was the case before Covid 19.
