Pedal boxes are an arse to fit to older vauxhalls. No room at all. | |

No flex in that servo setup at all then, bet the pedal feels like shit | |

Yeah I can see it needs moving but yeah, pedal box or at least a lever that isn't bending the servo coupling sideways. | |

You can't mount them where they're supposed to be. I've always thought a pedal box would be a better alternative | |

Yep. I would imagine a chevvy v8 more expensive for parts. Rover v8 is cheap | |

thats what i thought, price is pretty high, seem to be a lot of people overpaying on ebay. One of my mates sold an old motorbike, he bought it for £3400 about 3yrs ago, it got up to £4k and we couldn't believe it, ended up at £5900 and bloke came and paid/took it away. | |

Was gonna post this the other day. Been watching it to see what it goes for. Wanted a v8 manta a for years. When I first fancied one you could get a standard manta for 2k but now the prices are daft! | |
