[QUOTE=barnfind;804785]Cast pedals versus forged - does it matter on a street car?
QUOTE]
As was noted earlier, if a guy needs to heat, bend and fine-tune the fit of one or both of the pedals on an original forged steel set (which guys do frequently with original '39 pedal sets in NON-'39 cars), that would not be possible with CAST pedals...that's why it matters. DD
