lots of modern vehicle use styrofoam style blocks that raise or level out the floor over uneven sections. you could do that too if you feel right about the pedal where it is. remember to sit in the seat and check the angle of the foot when pressing the accel pedal. nothing worse than a wrong angle that results in a sore calf or shin muscles or an ankle that is sore after a long drive.

Yeah i was just trying to get an idea if originally the pedal went all the way to the floor to get a general idea how much to shorten the rod then fine tune from there. Attached is photos of where I am. Brake pedal isn't screwed in so it will be about an inch lower. 2nd photo is the gas pedal floored. Should my gas pedal be that far from the floor?

What I'd do is sit on the seat or something of similar height and make sure the pedal is comfortable under my foot at idle. It looks to my eye that it is too upright and you'd be flexing your toe/foot upwards more than is comfortable.

WOT will probably be close to parallel to the toeboard, you are only WOT for a few seconds at a time so if it is a bit of a toe curl to hold it down that is no big deal
