Steven,
I just converted my 91 'Vert with ABS last year. Here you go:
1. Don't both unbolting the automatic bracket from the firewall.; you need it. There are hidden bolts to get at up HIGH near the windshield. I started to remove mine, then realized I needed to keep it.
2. Cut down the original 90 auto brake pedal. Measure your 87 brake pedal, then cut to the same width. I tried to install an 87 brake pedal, and it was the wrong length. The cut down pedal works like a champ.
3. Use your 87 clutch pedal, shaft, bushings, etc. It bolts right into your existing bracket. Will line right up to your clutch master.
Good luck, you will like the 5 speed conversion.
