Hi Martin, cars looking awesome.

Managed to get the clutch working by bringing the peddle back, it sits a couple of inches further out than the brake peddle which isn't great. Decided to just run it like that for the rest of the summer then fit a decent peddle box over the winter. The OBP one is just total shit gives no confidence that its going to survive if you had to stand on the brakes.

Knew the problem would be the pedal box, just use a bigger cylinder. Thinking about it, if the ratio is that far out what's occurring with the brakes???!!!!!!

Im up to a .75 roughly worked it out I would need a 1'' with the travel I had before moving the peddle, been looking at a Tilton floor mounted peddle box.

Brakes are shit as well cant get the balance right either.
