Tim Reid Posted March 2, 2018 Posted March 2, 2018 I'm having a new pedal box built into my car. I will be using brake twin master cylinders with a balance bar so need to move the accelerator pedal mount back and up. Here is my current... Quote
Tim Reid Posted March 2, 2018 Author Posted March 2, 2018 Could someone provide the measurement of the newer post 1996 mounting plate as in this picture... Quote
Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman Posted March 4, 2018 Posted March 4, 2018 What measurements do you need Tim? The pedal positions? Master cylinder positions? Quote
Tim Reid Posted March 4, 2018 Author Posted March 4, 2018 It's the distance between the chassis and end of the accelerator pedal mount. In the first picture you can just about see a metal ruler next to the pedal mount. Quote

Will try and get you a measurement while I’ve got the pedal box cover off. Quote
Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman Posted March 4, 2018 Posted March 4, 2018 Ok, measured along the top of the bracket, from where it meets the chassis rail, flush with the aluminium bulkhead, to the approx centre of the pedals bolt hole is 12 cm 1 Quote
Tim Reid Posted March 4, 2018 Author Posted March 4, 2018 Perfect, my current is 9.5cm so 12cm is about what I was expecting. Thank you. Quote
Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman Posted March 4, 2018 Posted March 4, 2018 No worries. Hopefully getting the cover back on later this afternoon, so shout out now if any other dimensions are handy. Quote
Tim Reid Posted March 28, 2018 Author Posted March 28, 2018 Please could anyone tell me the measurement from the middle of the accelerator bolt to the floor and then to the alloy pannel of the current pedal box? See second photo. Quote
1960dave Posted March 28, 2018 Posted March 28, 2018 Have you thought about buying a complete peddle box from Compbrake I got one for my 88 narrow bodied car for less than £200 with 3 master cylinders. Quote
Tim Reid Posted March 28, 2018 Author Posted March 28, 2018 Yes I have thought about it but too far down the road to change plans now. Quote

Tim Reid Posted March 28, 2018 Author Posted March 28, 2018 Thank you but that's not helping. Thecar is already stripped down and part way finished at a local fabricators. I just need the above measurement to check all is good before he welds it up. Quote
Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman Posted March 28, 2018 Posted March 28, 2018 Sorry, my pedal box area is all sealed up again now, or I’d have measured up again. Quote
