Default Big Feet In A Small Footbox?

Over the years I've admired the beauty and performance of the Cobra, and researched both building and buying.

A friend of a friend had a Factory Five, and he generously took me for a drive and offered to let me give it a spin. I had to decline, as the footbox was so small there was no way my big feet could operate a pedal without risking actuation of the adjacent.

Earlier this year, Mark IV posted: "Yes there are now THREE footbox configurations that allow for different engines. The "standard" foot box setup allows either the Windsor series, the "FE" series or the "385" series engines. A no cost option is the "small block" footbox that gives more width and will only accommodate the Windsor engines. Last is the "Modular" footbox that will handle the 4.6/5.4 engines and the 5.0 Coyote."

So my question is for the big Superformance owners, with big feet, who drive "small block" footbox cars: Do you have adequate room to safely operate all three pedals? Do you have to wear driving shoes? Are there any mods which will provide a little more room?

Thanks in advance for your response.
