There is really not that much pressure on pushing a stock gas pedal.
At least there shouldn't be. |

I agree, not much leverage can be applied by the hand crank and especially so if it only has two spot welds I guess if you were really worried you could tack a small triangular fillet on the back. In the photo the dimple kind of looks like it is coming at you but it's not. It's going towards the wood. Dimple is shallow maybe 5-6 mm max I will take a shot of the back and side tonight so they are in one thread |

I have been working with Bruce Stone on these. when you have the pedal set rebuilt you can ask to have the tab added. we are also in the process of making a reinforced part. I have sold probably 35 kits 10 of which I know were installed in pretty short order. They do function as designed, it's a matter of perception. That an if I can I do tend to go towards overkill when its a expensive option.
I'll have these in about 2 weeks. Bruce and I were just talking about this last night. |

Just send me the fins and I will weld them on quickly no charge for those that want it.. I am actually disappointed I didn't know this before as I will be adding this and already replated my parts .. Darn MB911 Thanks for the generous offer, that is truly awesome of you (IMG:style_emoticons/default/first.gif) . I can tack it in place once I get the pedal assy out. Also thanks to all that responded and sent pictures and measurements. I appreciate all the help. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif) Hand throttle just now installed in tunnel. Will pull pedal assembly tomorrow morning and do the fin.

Update! Was able to surgically extract the lever without removing the entire pedal assembly! Going to be a bitch to get that tiny cotter pin back in there but it will happen.
Will be spot welding in the morning. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif) Sixer if you can get those back and side shots you mentioned this morning that would be great! and thanks! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/white914.jpg) |

Jim here you go. As you can see the fin is not hard against the crank and bang on 90 degrees to the flange Crazy I would have thought it would be right up against! Thanks (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/white914.jpg) |
