How about pedals? What setup do you have?
Oh and out of pure curiosity what FE engine are you running?

Thanks a lot!
I had an ERA cobra with a 428 Cobra Jet in it, sold it last year. I do not have any photos of the pedal. As Tommy suggests, if you can go with a floor mounted pedal, that might help. If not, you might be able to route the cable upwards and come out the top of the footbox, my MGB race car has the throttle cable going straight up from the pedal and then to the throttle linkage. That makes for a shorter cable. With a long throttle cable that is wound around the engine compartment you increase the risk of the cable binding at some point.
