I would think rod type throttles would be much more difficult to set up and install vs cable types.

Jody,

I understand what you mean, these are designed to fit stock locations and are adjustable. Im not sure what the ratio is, but I do know road racers and drag racers a like sometimes go with the rod style rather then the cable.

I like both, and feel they both have their place, rather it be for looks or function...one or the other could enhance or hinder the type of build or look your going for.

Thank you for the comments though, not really getting too much feedback on at PT.com yet. and thats ok.

I'd like to see an adjustable pedal to rod height. I'm getting ready to mod my stock pedal for heel/toe.

Todd,

Rod height? Are you refering to from the floor board up?

These have that adjustment....if there ends up being a desire for these, we me add the toe bar as an option...goes over the toe.

Do appreciate your input for sure....we have more goodies to introduce...but will need to wait until after Thankgiving.

Default Pedal

I have one on my car and I love it....! Piece of cake to install and adjust. I am really glad this piece was available. Has tons of adjustment and installed in only a few minutes.

I'm referring to an adjustable pedal that would allow fine tuning for heel toe. Bring the pedal closer to the brake pedal while still using the floor as the throttle stop.
