ok so i found a pic of what my trashed FD had. As you can see the top is mounted correctly and so is the bottom at the fire wall. now i took mine out of my current FD and tried to line it up with this stripped FD shell that as you can see had a pedal mounted correctly and it will not mount correctly in this one either???? WTF it dosent look bent or anything so anybody got any ideas???

OK so i took some measurements and obviously the pedal is too short but WHY????? From to the firewall to the top mount stud is around 9.5" but my pedal is about 8.X" take look at these
and heres the clutch pedal in question.
Now the only thing i can think is the top bracket was out of alignment when spot welded and some how made it through into the car????? WTF so it looks like to fix it i will have to drill out the spot welds realign it at the correct length and then tig it back together.
another thing that i should state is the only difference between these two cars im testing this off of is the black one is a 94 and the montego blue is a 93.
