Default FE/underslung pedals/Master Cyl locations?
Hi guys. Really appreciate some sound advice here. I’m prepping for installing a FE into a Mk IV. It’s RHD so 1” less footwell room than LHD and every 1/8” is worth fighting for. Even the steering column has 2 UJs inside the footwell.
We have to run underslung pedals, so there is somewhere for your left foot.

So, master cylinders. Is anybody running them on the engine bay side of the footwell? Heard folklore that temp that side is just too high, so just would like to hear if that’s the real story.

NB The alternative is running them in the footwells but that makes everything even more compromised.
