Default !!!!group buy!!!!

i have had a quote done for a 10x type9 pedal box with a hole to take the 41mm type master cylender (bolt holes will need drilling) so should be able take both types of m/c but you will need to check. all the cut plates all as in book spec but the brake pedal has been tweeked it now has an arc instead of that nasty kink on the foot side (its a weak point)
all seprate plates that weld together you would have to sort your own bushes and tubes
i have worked it out to be £25+vat for a set with no postage.
if you need a mt75 type or you want somthing slightly diffrent let me know
i dont know what the smaller type master bulkhead hole is so i can delete it or ajust my file to suit.
i need a minimum of 10 to be able to do this offer so please be quick
i will need payment when the orders are colected and posted this is what it is costing me and im not making a penny i just need a set for myself and there is no supply at this moment in time and co. i have been to ar not intersted in doing small jobs

Will the back plate be bent for the asking price or are you planning on having the plate cut short then let people find some angle to weld on? Although £25 is a very good price if it's just supplied as flat sections. I'm still waiting on my laser place to get back to me they've had the pedal box drawings 2 weeks already

Question

Whats the latest on this? Is someone going to be making book versions of the pedal box? Sooooooooooooooonish?

Also need to know how to tell the difference between a type 9 gear tunnel and the other version. What i have works for me but i dont know what i have.

I'd be interested in this, although I thought the book spec for the pedals was too thin at 3mm and should be done in 5mm as they tend to bend easy?

its all flat bits made to weld together to make life easy and more sutable to tweek to suit your build
brake is 5mm thick with the weak point removed and the clutch is 3mm as is the throttle(no chance on the throttle bending)
i could up the clutch thickness but it will effect the price or i could add one extra clutch arm plate and you could weld two together (easy option at £1.50 extra)
or how about braceing it with somthing that is what im planing as the cable may not fit if its thicker also i understand its bending only on short throw clutches (zetec fwd clutch plates) without moving the cable hole nearer to the pivot point

as soon as i have 10 order is going in btw

if you want just copy and paste yourself into the list with any extras you want
