I don't mind a hole in the firewall for the cable; I don't want one in the floor as I worry about sealing out road dirt and grime. I have seen OEM that don't mount to the floor and just swing from the firewall.Last edited by John Brian; 03-05-2009 at 05:34 PM.

Lots of choices in the boneyard. In my last build, I used an under-dash, 90-degree master and booster from Kugle Komponents. Rescued a brake and throttle pedal from a Mark V Lincoln. Cut the brake pedal pad off the Lincoln arm and welded it to the Kugel brake arm. Pedal and throttle matched and looked real nice.PLANET EARTH, INSANE ASYLUM FOR THE UNIVERSE.

I've recently put in a lokar eliminator pedal in my 48 ford f1. It was fairly easy, and doesn't take any skill! I'm happy with the results."

I saw last night on fb about John. The world sure lost a great one. I'm going to miss his humor, advice, and perspective from another portion of the world. Rest in Peace Johnboy.
