Lets see now.
Move the three master cylinder holes, one ~ 1.5" two 8mm Move the two pedal cluster mount studs. Extend the throttle arm + extend the clutch arm or cut the side of the tunnel away and angle the cables to the left. Move the two 6mm gas pedal mount welded nuts. Widen the slots on the toe board, or move the board to the left. OR..... drive barefoot ? |

I've been driving barefoot for many years to fit my size 13s in the available space. I keep looking for some driving shoes that would work.

On an episode of phantom works, they used heat, then bent the pedal arms a little bit.
Wasnt on a 914, but might work. |

I did exactly that on my old Karmann Ghia. You just need to heat and bend the clutch pedal. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Yep. Clutch pedal fits fine. Bent the brake pedal 1" left. Slid the gas pedal 1" left with a bracket. No more rubbing foot against tunnel carpet making a hole.
Now the steering wheel feels way off, like 1 3/4" off (IMG:style_emoticons/default/screwy.gif) |

I think some driving shoes or at least a pair of low profile sneakers that hold your feet snug would be the easiest short term solution (its what I do now)
