You might try laying back the floor panel directly behind the drivers seat (wedge cut). We recently cut that out and layed it back about 3 inches at the top and got some room for a 6.2 driver (we also installed an SRIII rear exhaust frame) and it lays about .5 inch off the cross member. We also moved the pedal cluster forward 3 inches like you did - Still not enough room to be really comfortable - but that's all the squeeze you can get without modifying the SR3 chassis a ton.
