Hi mate, is this where you drilled your 2" hole for the clutch master cylinder? Did you remove the pedal box first or just drill through that as well, and what about bolting it on can I use the top pedal box bolt and then just drill a hole for the bottom one?
What/how did you do yours?

Cheers!

yes thats about the right place but you need the master cylinder first.

measure down from the top bolt hole on the new cylinder and then do the same on the car measure down from the top bolt hole and drill it out . for the bottom bolt hole i welded a bolt onto the bulk head for it.

and yes you need to remove the peddle box to drill the 8mm hole in the peddle and i think i had to trim a little off the corner of the peddle box but you will see if you have to when you try to fit it back on.

Ah cool!
Yeah I have the master cylinder, just wanted to be sure before I went hacking away! lol

Then drill the 8mm hole 55mm down from the pivot point, is that meassured from the centre of the shaft that the pedal pivots on, or from the 'edge' of the hole that the shaft slides through in the pedal?

Cheers for your help!
