Sorry Jeremy - didn't answer your question!
I measured the firewall to clevis hole centre distance on the Metro servo set up, and replicated that for my new servo by screwing the clevis on outside the car. I locked the clevis off with the nut, and fitted it. I had to sligtly twist the pedal to make it align with the clevis. But that was the easy bit.

I decide to change my pedal box/firewall bolts and add a larger stainless washer. Removing the nuts inside the footwell to get them out was difficult. Putting the nuts back on was almost impossible! I even had Sue contorting with me inside the footwell.
Now that photo would have been embarrassing!
