You may want to add a brace from the brake/clutch pedal mounting bracket to the instrument panel to help stop the dash (firewall) from flexing.

I made a brace to attach to my brake pedal bracket and to the instrument panel/steering column mount area. Seems to work well. If you want to see it it's in one of my albums.

I'll check it out. I will be attaching the clutch/brake pedal mount as well as the emergency brake pedal mount to the dash as well. Thanks!
