Peddle Spacer

kirkevanskirkevansAmeriSport GT5-S builder Pantera Parts Vendor
I will be introducing an easy bolt-in peddle extension kit soon. It will extend the peddle assembly 1 1/2 to 1 5/8 inch 38 to 41mm which is the max you can go and still get full peddle travel without modifying the car's front firewall. Also I'll be offering several master cylinder reservoir replacement options for additional hood clearance that will fit the stock, Ford or GM replacement parts being used. The kit will contain the spacer assembly, all of the mounting hardware and detailed instructions to assist with break line mods or changes stock or aftermarket master cylinders.

Here are some pictures of the first part install.

If you are interested, please drop me a note.

Thank you.

Kirk

The tapered reservoir fits the hood clearance fine but the fill volume is a bit low. we will be offering an alternative billet res that will give you max fluid, look better and is a direct retro fit. The design below has a 5 deg. hood clearance draft on top. It uses a GM snap on lid that clips into the 4 grooves in the sides.

Thank you Mark. I hope some of the taller owners can use a bit more leg room.

Here is a view of the peddle plate bolted in. There are coupling nuts threaded onto the original mounting studs that you can run bolts into or thread studs into the long nuts and use regular nuts on the plate surface so it looks original from the outside---the kit will come either way---your choice.

I did a test fit on the latest production spacer today. It was designed so you can do the install of the peddle assembly with the clutch master cylinder installed with or without a clutch reduction kit completely assembled---a plus not having to install all of the link pins and bolts laying up-side-down in the peddle box with no arm/hand room. If you have interest in increasing your leg room, please drop me a note.
