Or use a B310 pedal set up. One in the shed if you need it.

Nah it wont bolt straight up, but from what I have played around with it will work. Just need to get in the position you want and screw it onto the wheel well/fire wall, kinda were the STD B210/B310 one is mounted.

Im not coming up to CHCH for awhile now, as I am due to have another op and it will put me out of action for about 6-8 weeks. I will dig it out and give it to either Kitch or Simon and they can give it to you at Akaroa.

it was pretty easy to make. Got a bit of tube from work 16mm od and I think 12 ID. Put a long m10 bolt up the guts of it and bent it in the vice with a big bit of bar on one end. The bolt was big enough to stop it collapsing to much but small enough that I could still tap it out from the other end. Then I used part of the of the original stick I cut off that has the bend in it and turned it round to 's' it back the other way with a bolt with the head cut off welded on top.

Feels way better although now 4th is pretty much straight up and down which is a little wierd at first but its now in a WAY more comfortable position from the race seat than it was also puts it up a nice distance from steering wheel too

I can bash one up for you if needed
