With Tilton 600 series foot petals is there anything a guy should know about setting these up or are they as straight forward as they look.
The brake gets the two 3/4" and the clutch gets the 5/8"
Mount the masters so all rods are straight, equal and parallel to each other.
adjust the pedals until they lean forward the same amount and bolt it down where your feet can push them comfortably.
I'll save the DBW gas pedal for another thread after I have these mounted.
Unless anyone as any tips I should know before hand.
Cheers,

they really are that simple....

you may need to trim off a small section of the pushrod on the master cylinders to get the pedals to have the throw you feel comfortable... sure to use jetnuts and bolts to mount them...this was covered in another thread too

The front gets 3/4, back gets 7/8 and the clutch gets 3/4 from what Fran told me.

Here is how I built my DBW pedal. I eliminated the spring on the Tilton pedal. I found it to be too stiff when combined with the DBW spring.

Ken you are correct..

But master cylinder sizing can be tuned depending upon required pedal pressure and travel..

The Ricardo Clutch uses a 3/4 master normally....

We supply a DBW pedal bracket as part of the kit.

So Fran with what Ken said do I need to move the 3/4" to the clutch and move the 5/8" over to my front brakes?
Cheers

Hi Ken,
Can't really tell are those neutral safety switches' on your clutch pedal ?
Do you by chance have a top view pic?
Thanks,

One of the switches is for the clutch safety start and the other is for the cruise control disengage. The clutch safety switch is mandatory for street registration in my province.

Does anyone have a picture of the factory setup with the new bracket and linkage?

Hey Ken, is the cruise control part of the kit wiring, or is it an add on?

Mine is a non standard electrical build Craig. I'm using the wiring from a C6 Corvette. Benifits are Heads up display, tire pressure monitoring, keyless push button start, cruise control, automatic headlights operation, theater dimming lights, etc etc.

Ken....that is awesome. Definitely something to think about with all of those fantastic add-ons. Did you simply steal from a donor car?

Here is a picture of the factory bracket with the linkage I built to go with it.
