I've never seen bushings in the Z bar or pedal where the rods mount, it is straight metal on metal.

People have modified them to use a shifter bushing, but you have to grind off the flange, or you won't get the pin in it. I've seen some drill the holes on the Z bar out and slip a piece of brass tubing over the rod end, but finding one that fits is an issue, not to mention they will wear out faster too.

If you've ever looked at a worn rod end where it goes into the Z bar (or pedal), you will know exactly why the Speed Direct setup was made.

Only mod I can think of is yes, there is no bend, but it can be straight, and just open the hole in the firewall a little at the bottom. The seal/boot will still fit.

Call them, there's a note on the part that says to call for more info.
