Brake pedal ratio modifications
Discussion
Can someone check these measurements and give me any confidence it'll do what I require please?
Removed my brake pedal and took some measurements to get the pedal ratio, as I plan to ditch my servo assist in favour of a twin master-cylinder non-assisted bias-adjustable set-up.
Pics of pedal and measurements:
I make that 19cm between the pivot and the pedal, and 4.5cm between the pivot and the connecting rod hole. That gives a pedal ratio of 4.3:1.
If I redrill where the white dot is in the second picture, that's 3cm away from the pivot, giving me a better non-assisted ratio of 6:1.
Sound about right?

Not mainstream, and tester knows the dealio with modified cars so should be OK on test. Thanks for your confidence, hopefully should do what I need it to then. Would I be better off welding extra to the top of the pedal or just drilling where marked?
Bias box arrives today so I'll mock it all up and see how I get on.
Cheers
