These casting numbers do not match my pedals at all - casting number of 199=
0300 verses 1224677 - LHD1229806 for RHD.=C2=A0 Any ideas what 1990300 was =
suppose to fit?=C2=A0 Can you send me a photo of your pedals and the guesst=
imate of the space behind them to the firewall?=C2=A0 Anyone else have a op=
inion?
ThanksJoel Martin

Joel,
There doesn't seem to be much adjustment available for pedal height except =
the two holes on the foot pedal, which gains / costs you @ 1 1/2" of height=
according to Section K of the Tiger Workshop Manual. If the goal is to hav=
e all 3 pedals' height the same that's the base line... whichever hole you =
choose, and adjust the throttle pedal height to match the brake and clutch =
height. I don't think the original brake and clutch rods were adjustable...=
at least the diagram doesn't show it... but later / aftermarket cylinder p=
ushrods may have an adjustment there.=C2=A0
You're right, imo, the travel is far more than needed for full clutch / bra=
ke engagement, But with the Tiger tunnel mods it gets a bit tight the close=
r to the firewall the pedals get. I'm a little guy; the folks with big feet=
will have issues the lower the pedals. As it is it's easy to hit the brake=
and throttle at the same time until one gets used to the car.=C2=A0
Anything can be accomplished with a drill press, but stock height, sadly, a=
ppears to be fixed.
