Thanks everyone for your help
Maybe a much easier idea????
My 66 1914 was a high shank back clamp too. We then bought a low shank 66 for parts and DH switched the foot holding posts,the one for the foot. It took about 10 minutes. Both the parts machine and the treadle work.
You take the chrome side plate off, unscrew the foot tension screw. Half way, there is a small screw to loosen. Keep track of your parts and order and you should be able to rebuild both machines with reversed feed shafts.
Good luck!
1914 Singer 66 was converted to low shank.
