Hey guys,
Im halfway doing a injected 304 conversion into my VH but have run into some small problems with my pedal box. The box out of the VN is different and nothing matches up? the VH was origonaly auto. Do I have to try find a VH manual pedal box? or could I use like a VL one?
Cheers Mike

Yep the VN pedal setup is way different. I'm unsure of the VL setup but i have put VK pedals into a VH. I doubt the VL would fit to tell you the truth

Vl has hydraulic clutch so no go. You'll need to get a vb-VK v8 manual pedal box

Im using a VK 6 cylinder peadl box in my VK with a T5 and it works fine.The pedal sits a little higher than the brake and accelerator pedals but after a while you dont even notice it

If you use the 6 cyl pedals the clutch will either be really light and touchy or too heavy, as the differences in the pedals is the pivot point which changes the leverage you get. i dont remember which way around it is.

It ends up being soft like there's no clutch.

If any one wants I have a Vh v8 pedal box. Like said before rare and hard to get.make an offer I sold my conversion and Stil have this
