Factory pedal position
Posted: Sun Jul 19, 2015 1:49 am
Morning all,
Due to the height of the previous owner, the brake and clutch cylinder push-rods had been shortened on my 3.5 to allow the pedal position to accommodate his legs.
I've now got around to fitting replacement clutch and brake cylinders, but want to double-check the factory distance between the brake pedal and throttle pedal.
Measuring from the middle of the brake pedal pad surface to the throttle pedal is now a drop of 6.4mm (2 1/4").
I'm hoping it's clear from the picture, but it's measured from the straight edge to the hole below the 2nd throttle mount bolt.
If someone has a later car that uses the same Tilton pedal box, then any comparative measurements will be appreciated, which will allow me to get back to factory specification as a good starting point.
Thanks,
Matt
