i used an electrical knock out punch to actually create the same ovalized hole in the firewall. BUT i made it a Bit too big and there daylight around the master. ill fix it later not too big a deal. and you can line the 2 bolt holes up one of 2 ways. first you can just bolt up the 5/6 speed pedal assembly in the car WITH! the streeing column out of the car. and theres a bracket fixed to the pedals in the correct location as it sits on the firewall for the Master cylinder hole. use a center punch threw the bracket. pull the pedals back down and start drilling the 2 bolt holes. next you either use a 1 1/2" hole saw or like me a knock out punch and roughly in the middle of the 2 bolt holes make a hole big enough for the master to slip threw. time consuming(pulling column) but not really that difficult.
the second way to line up the holes is drill out the added plate thats on the firewall in a 5/6 speed car and line it up to your firewall. it will only fit up to your firewall were it needs to be and then mark the holes and drill it. again with the column out.
But all in all im close to being done BUT have a bunch of little shit left.
fuel pump, lid/air filter of some sort, interior rewire for the manual pedals and interlocks, rear end still needs to be swapped(ijm thinking after dyno day) and other misc. time consuming shit im forgeting along the way. BUT soon enough it will be started up and "drivable" just not complete. will it ever be complete???
