For those that have done EFI (Sniper, AFI, other)/ V8 conversions. What gas pedal mods have you done?
I have seen some where the stock FJ60 gas pedal was used either with a rod directly to the throttle body from the stock pedal, or a cable utilizing the hand throttle hole.
I also know of one that did a FJ62 pedal mod to a FJ60 bracket. I was looking at this myself and mocked one up since it almost hits a hole that seems to be factory on the FJ60 (high on the firewall next to the brake booster,).
My observations so far. Note that I am using a FItech 4barrel throttle body, but this should not make a difference on the basic functionality from what I can see.
1. The rod from the stock pedal to the throttle body does not open up the butterflys enough (like 3/4 instead of full). This is a problem so I have ruled it out.
2. This is also a concern on the cable driven solution. Has anyone seen this.
3. the FJ62 pedal while will work and actually is in the correct position once mounted does not line up with this hole in the firewall (off by 1/16-1/4) and I am concerned with binding
Routing for a cable is not an issue (using a Lokar) as I will have more than enough slack and using a cable mount for the throttle body it lines it up without binding and odd angles.
