Well, my #670 is sold for 34K. While it is not what I had hoped for, it is the economics of the Obama Bin Ladin Barack times. Hopefully things will improve in 2012.

I took this photo which shows how the prdals are mounted. I was thinking about fabricating a set in which they were off center. This would move pedals about a 3/4".

Brake Pedal spacing from gas pedal
Has anyone modified the brake and clutch pedal to move both a bit more away from the gas pedal? Looking at the mounting. it looks as though offset tabs from center would help.

I put a Ford Racing 347 stroker in my BDR Cobra. Best decision I ever made. Lots of torque and RPM's. Ford claims 450 HP and I believe it. Idle decent and with a 700 CFM Holley, no problems.

Spats
Nice looking! I think one could even make these a bit lower down on the fender. The chips I got were concentrated within 4-5 inches of the bottom. Ron
