Guys i need a brake and clutch pedal set up where the master cylinders are inside the car, have Torana pedals been modified before this way or should i just buy a set of pedals and inside car cylinders??

Commonplace to mod pedalboxes on BMW and Escorts
Never looked too hard at a Torana pedal assembly to see if it can be done the same
And I don't have a manual Torana to check either
Wilwood don't seem to do a swinging reverse pedal assy

that floor mounted pedal box looked sweet but a bit pricey, never know i may go for it but ill have to do it soon as i want to finish my car. This is why i asked for a cheaper alternative on the other post.
I saw some Willwood over hung and floor mount, may give Earls plumbing a call.?? hmmm

Yeh it can be done... just depends how hand you are. I've done it on my race car, I used a Hino truck clutch master cyl.
I put my master in between the steering colum brace, you will need to do a little bit of cutting grinding etc as well as welding a plate for the cyl to mount too.
you will also need to weld a tag/lug to the top of the pedal pivot point to opperate the cyl rod...... A bit of mucking around to bet all the movements and geometry right, but worth it in the end....
Hope this was a help..
