Question Swing pedals

Is there a kit to convert a 53-56 to swing pedals and is it worth the effort?

I'll be using the ones from the 96 F350 to use in my 56 Mercury M350...I made an extension bracket to tie it in to the dash.
Not installed yet, waiting to have my motor installed before cutting the holes in the firewall..

Swing pedals

Thanks guys. I have a shot at a 53-56 that is an uncompleted project. It already has a 302/C4 but I need to give it a second look. Fortunately it has been stored in a garage. Then, I still have to run it past the wife.

When you said pedals I thought you meant brake and clutch. With a C-4 all you need is the brake pedal , here's a link to CPP hanging brake pedal ,there is different brake configurations whether you have drum brakes, disc.drum or disc/disc .choose whatever you are running with...
