Hi Mark,
I had a brief stint with a wilwood clutch pedal in my 4 this year, and quic=
kly learned that the shape of the firewall makes all the angles of the typi=
cal standard pedal setups all sorts of messed up. =C2=A0I couldn=E2=80=99t =
get the throw the wilwood pedal was meant for. =C2=A0It=E2=80=99s a double =
whammy with the upper part of the firewall angled one way, and the lower an=
gled the other way, with neither vertical, which is what the generic soluti=
ons are designed for. =C2=A0 I=E2=80=99d point you at the good parts Tilton=
 setup for the TR6 pedal box, if your cage allows=E2=80=A6 (mine does not, =
so installing a Racetorations setup for the TR4 pedal box=E2=80=A6.)

I hope that helps - I think extensive firewall work would be needed, or leg=
s that are a lot shorter!
