Floor mounted gas pedals....anybody?? Lets see them!

[phillym5]

I have been looking into ways of dumping my pedal set(mainly gas pedal). Im looking to either design/build if i can't find any... or just buy a floor mount gas pedal.

Lets see your pedals..... And if it is a floor mount.. where or how you got it.

THANKS...

Yes.... and i can't stand the gas pedal. Even with all the different adjustments i tried... the gas pedal is just too short... falls behind the brake pedal too far.. ect.

That pedal set up looks pretty good. Im looking for something like this... use the stock brake and clutch... but have the gas pedal like this photo. I understand these pedals are(in the photo) "by wire"... but it seems feasable to adapt this style of pedal.... Maybe run a spacer style box coming from the fire wall and have the linkage tide into the pedal up top...
This photo is from a porsche. It just seems WAY more solid.. especially for heel toe driving.

That Tilton pedal set is nice -- but I sure as hell wouldn't have accepted that crap plumbing! What a snakes den of crap that is!

Sorry Josh... had to toss my "opinion" in there...

Clayton Machine makes some "fancy" pedals -- but I'm thinking yours is more of an issue of placement etc rather than the looks?

I agree, the lokar puts the pedal a little to close to the brake pedal. Shortening the rod a 1/2 may do it.

Have to agree, when I saw that car at SEMA last year it was the first thing I noticed since I have those pedals in my racecar. Just wait 'til they have to swap a master cylinder out and the fluid is dripping all over that nice carpeting. The car, otherwise, is freakin' sweet but that is just a last-minute, slap-it-in-there looking setup and they should have boxed the floor in so the masters were accessible from outside.

Back on topic with that set, I can say that they are well designed for heel-toe work - note the spacing between the gas and brake v. brake and clutch, quite nice for blipping throttle for downshifts going into the corners, etc. Here is mine, note they are gold anodize as they were one of the first sets they sold, they are black now as a standard. You have a lot of fab in your car so fabbing the floor a bit to work with these and move the masters exterior would not be unreasonable. They are technically floor mounted but using the master mount location thru a boxed section would add extra rigidity as well.

Don't have the best shots of them here at my work computer but one that shows the wheel really closely you can see how well spaced the brake and gas pedal are - you may note it is better to have driving shoes on cuz the typical tennis shoe can be wide enough to clip the edge of the brake pedal when flooring it into straights.
