Hello Daniele,
The pedal box area on your BT7 should not be different than other models
until they got to the BJ8 where they formed a bit more clearance for the air
filter of the bigger HD8 carbs.
If you have the stock twin carb HD6 setup with thermal choke arrangement,
there should be good clearance there when fitting things. If there is not, I
would suspect the engine mounts are either sagged and collapsed through age
or the engine mount assemblies may be reversed....left to right and right to
left. These are canted onto a slight angle and will certainly make a
difference how the engine sits in the engine bay.

Subject: [Healeys] Pedal box and HD6 thermo choke
Hello I'm a new member of mailing list. My name is Daniele and I'm
restoring an AH 3000 BT7 MKI of 1959.
Does anyone know if the pedal box was modified to install the HD6 carb
with thermo choke? I ask that because I can't install my carbs. When
I disassemble the car I noticed that the pedal box in the point near
the rear carb was just a little bit bent by some hammer blow (see the
picture attach). During the body work we repair the pedal box but now
I can't install the carbs. You think I should bent the pedal box
again? Does anyone send me pictures of pedal box area of car with
thermo choke system?
Sorry for my terrible English.
