    I have the wilwood pedalbox and fitted up the Whitby power brake setup...

    definitely requires some tweaking and patience!

    I highly recommend the spacer from replicaparts as well since it will seal up the footbox and give the needed space!

    plus it's a great template to drill your holes!

    Yep, or WalMart, Kroger, whatever

    Here's my $5 solution to the master cylinder into the splash panel issue which has come to be known as the "Fluffy's bowl mod":
