993 C4s. Sweet car, very predictable to run on the edge. Sure the Tiltons are different, but it's the same concept compared to the first gen set up/realtive throttle location for heel/toe. Maybe I should adapt a Porsche set-up instead?

Default Curious to see how

you are going to mount the pedals. I would guess the masters would come through the toe kick of the floor...on my car it would hit the headers.

I am runnng a twin master and ended up with .70 front and .75 rear master. Wilwood super lights 6 piston front and 4 piston rear.

Hood is fantastic!

Yeah, I'm not quite sure what we're going to do. I was looking at the pedals, and the floor yesterday we're going to have to cut the floor as it starts to angle up to the firewall. It could be simple, or Dick might end up cutting a fair amount of stuff, probably the latter. I think the master's could fit inside the the cabin as long as the reservoirs are mounted remotely. Not sure on what sizes to run yet, maybe 15/16.

Oh, and would anyone know the specs for the T56 clutch/master?

You can always do it like Bob did on his cuda. There not remote but they offer a remote option

Yeah, no problem haha. I'm going to warn you though, the more I think about this, the more of a pain I think it is going to be. There's a chance we might not even have time to get the pedals figured out due to time constraints. BTW I don't know if you saw the new hood in person, but If you're interested in letting out some hot air, seeing as you have a pair of hair dryers hidden under the hood, you might want to think about one. I did all the guinea pig work on that too

We've been making some good progress on the car, and we intend to have the car done in mid November in case we happen to win Muscle Machine of the year. I never figured in a million years that we would ever be in the running for such a thing when we got this car several years ago.

Dick has been thrashing away on this car, and it will be coming together pretty quickly. It's kind of like last year all over again.





Dick and I (mostly Dick) have been trying to figure out the floor mount pedal, and it looks like they are going to be a royal pain. The clutch master needs to go exactly where the frame rail bends up on the subframe. In order to be close to making them work we're going to have to have the drivers seat way back and move the steering column closer so everything will still be within reach. I might have to go with a set of hanging pedals if everything fails.

*edit* found some pictures of the pedals.

You know what you should get?

These:


These are new from Anvil- 1969 Camaro rear 1/4 gill scoops. They work as brake ducts if you open the panel gills up like you have done.

Just sayin'. Food for thought. Operators are standing by.
