Adjustable aluminum gas pedal installed. - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

Corvette95 · 02-11-2021

Didn't want to modify the car so I ordered an adjustable aluminum gas pedal cover. Will (hopefully) make heel/toe easier. Wasn't a quick install due to the room in the drivers floor board (you all know what I am talking about) but about 20 minutes. Raining today so no test drive yet.

That's very slick. Nice heel and toe mod. I can't imagine all 6'4 of me working down there.

How is it attached to factory pedal?

There is a back plate behind the pedal, and two bendable metal straps that fit very tight around top and bottom of pedal...attached by 5mm torx screws. Then on the front the actual aluminum plate) there for 5 torx bolts of different lengths and different size spacers (depending on if you want the pedal at factory depth or closer to front of seat, 3 sizes to choose from, then one torx that you can adjust the fan splade to the width from the brake to gas pedal. It is very secure, and it fits the Corvette fine, but it is the maximum width of the supplied bands. I am going to drive it and see if I chose the right spacing, I went for maximum length spacers. I think it was around $60 and it can be removed for the stock look if wanted.

Its not pretty but it seems like a great concept! Please let me know how it works. I've installed Razo pedals in the past. Never had any issues. Also bent some pedal assemblies to accomplish the same end goal that you were after. I wonder how solid that locking nut is. May want to throw some loctite on there if you havent
