    X1/9 Throttle Pedal

    I'm wondering if anyone has used that Fiat X1/9 trottle pedal? I'm planning to use one on my kit, but was trying to figure exactly where to install it. It needs to be close enough to the forward bulkhead, yet not too close to allow for full throttle.

    If I had a lefty, then I'd give it a serious look.
    RHD can be a pain for the throttle/cable.

    Silly me, I forgot that most of you drive from the wrong side of the car (ha ha ha).

    I guess I need to put the injection on the engine to see how much travel there is, then set the pedal assembly to allow for that.

    Hi,

    it's your decision but i prefer an kopie from Original!
    here the solution from Pim, Kai and mine.
    you can see the pedals are on the left side! LHD always right,
    i hope the pictures give you an new vision.

    Thanks Enzo, actually the X1/9 pedal is pretty close to the middle picture, the exception being the the foot pad does not go all the way to the floor.

    This is the best photo that I could find, I'm sure it will look a little different once installed. I can always fabricate a full foot pedal using the Fiat mechanism.

    Interesting, I found this picture of an original Stratos and it has the same trottle pedal that I purchased.
