Hi Mark,

=20

I had a brief stint with a wilwood clutch pedal in my 4 this year, and =
quickly learned that the shape of the firewall makes all the angles of =
the typical standard pedal setups all sorts of messed up.  I =
couldn=E2=80=99t get the throw the wilwood pedal was meant for.  =
It=E2=80=99s a double whammy with the upper part of the firewall angled =
one way, and the lower angled the other way, with neither vertical, =
which is what the generic solutions are designed for.   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.)

=20

=20

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

Existing clutch/brake pedal are not stock and has a balance bar.  Stock =
