What's not to like Other than a max pedal ratio of only 5.75 to1.

This will require some recalculations of master size and pad COF.

Well looking back a few pages you can see a picture of the toeboard to frame clearance and a nice void waiting for some master cylinders. After Brett had mentioned floor mount pedals I took a few measurements to see how much room was available. Seems pretty roomy.

As far as the issue you had with the angle of the pedals when mounted perpendicular to the floor. I'm a little taller than some so my seat will be as low as practical. I test fit the Kirkey seats once and mocked up a driving position. In my case with the seat was so low I noticed the opposite of you in that my original swing pedals seemed awkward since they were obviously designed with a seat whose base was 9" off the floor in mind. The floor pedals and my Kirkey low on the floorpans feels right at home like my old shifter kart seating.

Starting from scratch with seat, pedal and steering wheel position makes the recipe easier since they are all getting planned as a unit.
