Chet as much as you may like them or the fact you get an extra 15bhp per pedal I can't use the things, my feet are to big and tbh I hate th ethings.

I still have bens silver ones up here he will need to get back at some point, I think I still have them anyway.

Mine were a pain to fit but they are fixed to to metal not to the old rubber things. I made up ally backing plates. The clutch and break have two small bolts and nuts into the original metal.
The accelerator back plate are fixed with two U clamps.
Original rubber is mush. But glueing some thing on top of that for looks is realy silly.

they bolt through the pedal mate after you take the original rubbers off.

The throttle pedal is bolted to the original plastic pedal for easyiness I imagine.

I found some Issota things in the local tyre center,
nice becuse they have some rubber lumps that stick through but they need a backing plate.

Sparco do them in ally.

You pull the plastic thing off the accelerator pedale and find a bit of bent round bar LOL.

You wear trainers (seen some in another link). No wonder you hit all the pedals at the same time.

I wear size 6_7 and cant heal an toe with trainers.

its worse in my cat boots mate, size 14 trainers size 13 in cat boots, not easy.

I have always hated pedals like these I always take them off even if I need to move a car a couple of miles.

cat engines are pretty good.

driven a few trucks and fixed a few forklifts.

You gotta love scrappies that need to empty a can of easy start into the intake to get their forklifts to start. Fools made em dependant on it.

Problem with power boats is short blasts at high speed.

We had head gasket problems. Helped the Cat guys sort it. But with heads on the V12 weighing 150 Kg per side.

The boat (Ship) I'm on now has 4 MTU V20 8000 Hp each.

Turbos a gogo, it's three stage loading with multi intercooling, not my department.

I do know that each cyllinder has its own head (think 5 valves) and its own came shaft driven injector.

gone way off post sorry
