Brake Master Cylinder Push Rod

Anybody know where I can get the correct brake master cylinder push rod that goes to the brake pedal for a 72 Cuda with a manual transmission and manual brakes? I converted from an automatic transmission and the push rod is too short.

Transmission swap has nothing to do with the brakes

Thats's what I was thinking but my push rod that hooks to the brake pedal is 1/4" too short.

I got the brake pedal, clutch pedal, hanger and rods from a 1970 Challenger with power brakes. The brake push rod from the Cuda manual brakes is too short to fit the replacement pedal

So start checking the junkyards... An A body would probably be easier to find with manual brakes... Still sounds strange As I remember the Power Brake pedal linkage is attached to the booster ??
Pedal height will change from power to manual
