[Tigers] Concern\Question - Front Drivers Seat Foot well space

[Joel Martin]

Installed drivers seat today, and moved seat all the way to rear - comes right up to rear shelf on slider - good. I am 6'0" tall.  Concern is the amount of room between knees, stock steering wheel (15.3"), right knee to shift lever and the foot pedals.  With the clutch pushed in there is still about 8" left to the firewall with about 11" from brake pedal and the accelerator pedals to the firewall.
Do we really have this much wasted foot well room from the end of the pedals to the firewall?  The brake pedal and the accelerator pedal are about even in the foot well with the clutch about 1" further 'out' than the other 2.

Findings:  Both the brake and clutch pedal have the same casting number of 1990300 but with different bends entirely.  This seams unusual.  The Clutch bends to the left with only 1 available hole connecting to the pedal bracket.  The brake bends slightly to the right with 2 holes available connecting to the pedal bracket.  Both brackets look to be the same.

Spacers at the master cylinders:  brake master has spacer between master and firewall.  Clutch master does not have spacer due to brake reservoir slightly to one side closest to clutch reservoir, so no spacer or the clutch master reservoir would contact brake master reservoir and would not bolt up..
I see all this wasted foot well space and now wonder if I have the right pedals, brackets etc for this car.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
RegardsJoel Martin
