If I'm reading Jeds post correctly, they were able to get the ratio by using a frame mounted master with an aftermarket pedal assy also frame mounted. Brought the pedal up thru the floor and modified it to use the original pedal height and location.

I am anxiously awaiting pictures to see how they did the pedal. I once suggested the possibility of using the original suspension setup to keep the stock look & hiding the floor pedal in the regular boot. Was unsure on how to do the actual pedal connection due to different arcs. Sounds like they just used the pedal on the shortened floor stalk without being suspended--or else figured the arcs out.

I think the biggest problem people have with Turbos or Craigs conversion is the looks. Turbos requires a different spot and is readily apparent. Craigs requires a different pedal and also apparent. This conversion is radical but doesn't sound as if readily seen and that would appeal to many. Also be interesting to see the approach packard34 takes with his conversion.
