Default Re: 32 vs 33-34 Pedal Differances???

They made some of the pedals beam and oval ,changed to beam for the clutch ,so you ask your self why the different shape , its more costly to produce a forging where several strokes of the press is needed and 3 or four metal dies were required as opposed to a casting that only needs a wood pattern and multable casting can be pourd at once . S o forgings were used on critical parts were maximum strength was required .Is it possible that some of the clutch pedals was cast but in a beam shape to improve strength for a casting ( not being a critical [part )
