The pedal box is pretty much done, I might add a small gusset and it still needs to be powdercoated or painted. But I'll be testing it out first to make sure, I don't want to have to modify it after it's powdercoated. I will be fitting it in the car tonight so I can continue to set up the seating position and the steering column position.
The pedal box started as a Mini pedal box and I cut it up and modified it from there. The brake and gas pedals will be in the stock location but the clutch pedal is positioned slightly more to the left because I straightened it out slightly and also because cut the weld and moved it over on the pivot to make a little room for the Wilwood balance bar. And also to make room for my size 12's. I'm running 3 Honda clutch master cylinders with remote reservoirs to are connected with a brake balance bar to adjust the brake bias and also because I didn't have enough room to run a longer brake master cylinder. I used the pivot/bushing assembly from the Honda clutch pedal and used it for a pivot for the attachment of the clutch master cylinder push rod to the Mini clutch pedal. I also integrated the Honda clutch start safety switch and the Honda brake lights switch. This is all probably quite confusing to read so hopefully you can figure it out from the pictures. Not that anybody is going to attempt replicating this anyway. I spent alot of time figuring out the geometry and building this crazy contraption. Unless I run in to any problems this should reach all my requirements I started with for the pedal box.
1. Stock looking dash (I wanted the old school shelf dash free of master cylinders).
2. Cheap master cylinders.
3. Master cylinders that are easy to get.
The down side is that it might be a little hard to access the master cylinders if I need to replace one of them since they will be located under the intake manifold.
The wheel on the left makes more room for the VTEC! Here is an update on the pedal box, it's pretty much done, I might do a couple touch ups and maybe another small gusset in one area and then I will paint it once it's fine tuned, or maybe powdercoat it. Now I can continue with setting up my steering wheels and seating position.
PS Thank goodness for TIG welding!
