Hi all
after bleeding my brakes and attaining a higher, stiffer brake pedal, i can no longer heel-toe. simply, the brake pedal doesn't travel far enough to the floor to permit my foot to "roll over" to the throttle pedal. brake is too high/throttle is too low. this is severely impairing the joy of driving my car!!! any suggestions?

There are, of course, aftermarket pedals that are adjustable. Some are kind of pricey it's true. You might consider changing your technique from a knee kick/ foot roll, to a twist your heel out method. For the latter, having an extension on the lower left of the throttle pedal helps (true heel/toeing). You could take a piece of aluminum and make your own pedal or pedal cover in the form of a simple overlay.
