    Hi mate, I'm doing one now, do you know the correct position to cut the floor for the shift shaft to come through?

    Make a template off another car, and cut it exactly.

    I have done this and had a whole car, a Statesman, sitting next to the van at the time.
    I still have the collar from the 3 speed manual column shift, still on the steering column. Just removed the lever.

    There is a difference between a manual brake pedal to that of an auto, as I found out first hand. Slightly different angle which does not operate brake booster adequately. That's going from Manual to auto, not sure if that's the way you are going.
    In my experience brake pedals are the same with regards to the booster for auto and manual with the same booster. What you've probably had is different boosters on the 2 x cars.
