Hello,
I am planning on using the ********** AC pedals. I am also using the Wilwood Pedal box supplied with the kit. This apparently isn't a quick switch from the Wilwood to the AC pedals (not sure why I assumed it might be... :) ).
My choices seem to be either make an adapter that fits the pedals and arms, or... cut off the AC pedal mounting boss and tap the holes in the pedals. The problem with this approach is there isn't a lot of meat left on the pedal. Has anyone else done this?

Here are some pics:

Can't help you too much there. I adopted those to the Mustang pedal box on my first build. But didn't see a good solution with the Wilwood pedal box. This is a little late in the game, but Mike Forte sells an AC pedal that is direct bolt-on to the Wilwood arms. They're machined aluminum (vs. the cast pieces you have now) and attach to the Wilwood pedals using the existing bolt locations through a cover on the front. Very nice pieces which I highly recommend. Here is a pic of the Forte pedals from my last build. This was during the build, so I didn't have the front covers attached yet. They're the circles with "AC" machined in them. Obviously they are not straight in this pic. I'm using these on my newest build as well.
