Are the 5.0 pedals different from the 4cyl pedals? I am finally getting to do my T5 swap. I'm buying a T5 from a guy here on stangnet. Lots of 4cyl cars in boneyards with 5spd, but no 5.0's give me your feedback please.

I do think that there is no difference in the pedals between the engine sizes, and by what you wrote it seems you do know the t5's are different, the 4cyl being weaker and geared a little different.

I meant the actual pedals thierself. I know there is a difference between 4cyl T5 and 5.0 T5, just don't know if ford had 1 set of pedals for v8 and 1 for 4 cyl.

I am almost 100% sure that they are the same.

100% Positive they are the same <----- Did my own 4cyl swap with the advice from a few guys at Latemodel Restoration (in 2002).

I know my clutch pedal sticks out farther than the brake pedal (went from 4cyl to 351W with Tremec 3550). From what I have seen the orig stds don't do that so there may be some difference.

So I assume you just added a clutch pedal itself to the auto brake pedal? Maybe the brake pedals on automatics are shorter than on standards so perhaps swapping both brake and clutch pedals would fix that. I see no reason why the pedals would be different from 4cyl to 8cyl and if the pedal itself is longer on either standard cars, I would wonder the reason for that. I could see the clutch pedal length being different than the length of an auto brake pedal, but as stated above swapping both pedals should fix that. I hope this makes sense to anyone reading it......I know what I mean anyway. If you MUST change both pedals to convert to stick than I guess this will make no sense at all.

Tis all good, I'm going to get a clutch pedal setup out of a 4cyl car they are much more abudant, and everyone seems to think there is no difference. What do I have to lose

No not at all. My car was originally a 4cyl 5 speed. I didn't swap any pedals at all.

A 4 cyl pedal assembly has a shorter clutch arm than a 5.0. I can show you pictures, I bought 4 cyl pedals and my bbk quadrant did not fit.

That is surprising. My Steeda quadrant fit just fine on my 4cyl pedals.

Interesting info, I think I have a set of each, an 82 V8 set and 92 4 cyl set. I also have a set of Turbo coupe pedals. Never looked to see if they were different.

Going to use one set one day...

Could you send them to me? I have a pedal set I got at a swap, I think it's from a V8 car, if there's a difference I'd like to know before I go and put them in.
