I need to "trim" the center tunnel a little so my pedals can fit better. How much of a structural factor is it to the car? see pics. Attached thumbnail(s)

Terrance,
I am working on hopefully mounting my pedals in the tube car in about 2 weeks. I have both the short Tiltons and the short Wilwoods. I had the short Wilwoods originally, installed them but ended up not using them because I didn't have a pedal box area cut out yet, and the lines exit the front of the MCs (so the outlets hit the stock firewall). The Tiltons exited the top, so I bought them for a quick fix to make a track event. Wilwoods are new, Tiltons have 4 track days total, so basically new as well. If you are interested in a set of short MCs, PM me and maybe we can work something out in a couple of weeks. I will make it worth your while for a brand new set of 3 MCs (.700 for front brakes/.650 for rear brakes/.750 for clutch slave). Since you are building a recessed pedal box like Mike, either type will work easily. Trust me, and extra 1-1/2"-2" at the pedals will make a huge difference. |
