[DeTomaso] Pedal Casting?

I used Wilwood pedal assy. mounted to an AL plate with the MC being raised from the traditional position in the Pantera so that the manual pedals are located in the same position as stock pedals. I milled new pedals out of billet AL as I did not want to take the chance of welded pedal failing at a bad time. Mark

Ken,
I'll send you the What I am using for master cylinder sizes. I talked to the
guys a Tilton and they were very helpful.

I know about the pedal ratios, I didn't want to dent the wall of the front
trunk to make room for clutch MC.
Also, the ratio of MC bores to caliper piston areas is part of the equation.
It looks like 0.75 MCs and the fairly large Porsche 996 Turbo caliper
pistons I am using come out about right.

If you are converting the stock pedal assembly to non vacuum assisted, the
pedal effort will increase. Willwood manual pedal assy. is 6:1 and power
brakes are between 5:1 and 4:1.

Hi Les,
Any idea what you would want for the pedal assembly casting?
I used a Tilton 7/16 balance bar on the prototype, and it placed
the MC shafts where some of the webbing is on the pedal side, so I had
to cut into the webbing. I found a 1/2 inch Tilton balance bar and it
is wider, so I can avoid the webbing. I did basically the same as
Goran did before me (see attachment). I like this a lot better than
something that is in front of the casting, I think Dennis Quela has
something like that.
So you are back in California?
