Default Where can I get a dead pedal?

For you racers out there, where did you get your dead peddle. My mechanic can't find one for the SRT6.

Thanks for your help.

And yes, we already know about waldig's foot block solution. Maybe attaching the pedal to that block would make good sense.

blacklimitedcoupe had no problem installing it.....see link below:

I also recall someone installing one from a Mustang (I believe) that worked out nicely and matched the other pedals as well. May take some serious searching for that one.

Edit: found it......https://www.crossfireforum.org/forum...ght=dead+pedal ....Post #10 by former nxmx5. Matches perfectly.

I may be missing something here, but it looks like blacklimitedcoupe screwed the pedal into the carpeted floorboard:



-- without adding something like waldig's block:



It would be nice to find a way to combine these two approaches for owners who might find that sizing more appropriate for their driving styles. Thanks.
