Default Tilton Pedal sets mounting pictures needed.

Hi Guys,

Looking for pictures of how racers have mounted Tilton pedal sets inside the cab. Anything will help.

Thanks in advance.

Not really a heap to see as I've not taken a lot of detailed pics of those parts. However here they are. Also note underhood how much extra space is gained from losing the stock brake booster, master cylinder etc. Gone will also be the AOS and dipstick with the new motor going in. Looks quite different without the extra clutter. Note also we moved the whole pedal assembly backwards. They are now floor mounted like a 911. I thought it would feel funny but I didn't even notice it. Moved the seat back and down by about 6" which meant making the wheel boss extra long.

Totally different, especially since the pedal ratio and master cylinders differ from stock. Standing pedals are very uncomfortable if the throw is too long.

Perhaps mine were setup well to start with but I found that I didn't even notice them. There can be some trial and error in selecting the cylinder sizes too. Going without booster can mean a very stiff brake pedal or for more feel it gets very long, but again, I was very lucky. My builder seemed to find the perfect middle ground. Not sure how much we might need to change when the Cup Callipers go on?

Note that Tilton makes a hanging pedal set as well. We almost used it with my car. Depending on your level of disassembly and configuration it provides another option.
