Don,

I think the angle has a LOT to do with precisely where the new hole is drilled. If the hole is 1/8" off the pedal will be too far in or too far out. (Just guessing on my part.)

One thing that I learned from the use of the new pedal is that my brakes aren't a whole lot better with the mechanical advantage offered by the new pedal. The new pedal made the brakes easier to apply, but the car didn't really stop any quicker.

For a person with less strength in their legs the new pedal is great (if the height of the pedal is correct). For a big lug like me, the pedal change just wasn't worth the change in pedal height.
