Any updates here? Is there a replacement kit for the ‘55 400?

I purchased one of the systems. As delivered does fit in contact with company. Overall length is to long . Working on making new toe board to fit. Aside from the length issue very nice looking system. I'm a bit disappointed about the pedal position still needing to be so low as to call attention to an obvious mod. Am wondering how much too long the unit is and which approach you are taking so solve the length issue. I had a few thoughts but don't know if any are possible space wise without seeing an actual unit in place so just curious what you are coming up with.

tried many ways to use unit including shims between floor and toe board plate. Final modification in volved making new toe board from 1/8 plate which moved unit further into interior of car. then got another brake pedal modified it and the replacement pedal and manual brake light switch . Lines were easy installed remote filler on firewall. Only real modification was the holes in firewall to install reservoir. One brake line in picture is NOT copper.
