Cliff,

An E-M builder described his footbox modifications- similar to those you describe- on this website maybe a year ago & posted some pix. I have done something similar in my Midstates build with a dropped footbox floor attached to frame instead of floorboard and a bit of added room around the gas pedal. I know of another Midstates builder who is doing something similar. Since many of the cars are set up to take almost any engine/trans combo I would guess that an owner could probably gain a couple inches the critical footbox space on many replica makes as long as the biggest and widest powertrain on the list isn't being used.
