A late model midget gas pedal linkage assembly (75 on) incorporates the
pedal. It does not use a floor mounted pedal.
Back in the '60s, I used a Healey brake pedal and mounted it onto the
original linkage. The Healey brake/clutch pedals were bolted to the pedal
arms. - Jim

Since its been a little quiet, I thought that I'd ask a question that's been
bugging me.
On my MKII which I converted to the dual master, dual line brake system, the
brake pedal is too far away from the gas for me to heel and toe. The options
that I've come up with are:A) to remove, heat and bend the brake pedal
towards the gas, B) fabricate a "Paddy Hopkirk" style gas pedal extension
like I did on our race Spit or C) Completely revamp the gas pedal and get
rid of the pivot on the floor (which I'm not terribly fond of anyway).
What says the accumulated wisdom(?) of the list?
