Well it was not as tricky as you might think. First I found out the ammount of travel a stock s-10 had. then I figured out the ammount of travel I needed in the master cylinder, and then I started mocking things up. I can get you some more detailed measurements, but I am leaving for Detroit for work, but when I get back on Fri. I will P.M. you the measurements I have.

Hey Gavin, I can send you the inside part that moves, along with the pin that goes through the assy. I am only using the outer part that the master cylinder bolts to. PM me your addy. if you want this part.

It looks like I'm going to be doing a setup similar to yours. I have room behind the glovebox and just enought room to make the pivot beding the cluster. Anything specific I need to make the setup like yours? What did you use for the shaft that pivots next to the steering column?

Just make sure that the linkage is sturdy otherwise you will lose pedal pressure from the linkage bending. I had that problem on my truck when I put the booster and master under the bed. The linkage flexed alot and didn't work nearly as good until I ran the linkage though bushings to keep it from flexing.
