Hi All,

Could a floor mounted pedal box from a Tuscan be fitted into a TVR Chimaera. I am able to do adaptations. Question here is if the bulkhead of a Tuscan/Tamora is very different from a TVR Chimaera one?

Reason for this is to convert a RHD Chimaera in a LHD Chimaera and mounting a floor mounted pedal box is far the most easiest solution.

This is a question for technical guys.

Thanks,

Paul

You'd have to relocate the battery/fuse box/ecu/relays etc that live in the passenger footwell first.
I doubt that there would be enough legroom to fit it all in, the tuscan pedal box must take up a good 10" of footwell length.

In case it helps, places like Tilton do aftermarket pedal assemblies, I see they do various combinations of single/dual master brake and clutch from about £100 up. Don't kow how thoswe prices compare to TVR but they sound pretty reasonable to me.
