Certainly possible, but seems unlikely.

Lot's of people do this, but I never found it necessary. OTOH, the early pedal 
assy is in 2 parts (separate steel piece to hold the gas pedal), and I've never 
had to deal with that one. The late assy is just a single alum casting and is a 
lot less of a handfull when trying to get all these pieces in there at the same 
time.

I've always thought that the late pedal casting assy would be a good upgrade 
for early cars. Note, however, that there are 2 different lengths of clutch 
cable arms. This can change your mech. advantage on the clutch; sometimes this 
is good, sometimes it is bad.
