With my brake pedal right up against the frame bar it's parallel with the Coyote Gen 3 accelerator I've installed according to the manual. The manual suggests adjusting them so the brake is even with the accelerator when depressed, which makes a lot of sense. Does anybody have a suggestion for how I can adjust the accelerator? It's already awfully tight in there. I'm contemplating trying some spacers on the top to tilt it back slightly, but was hoping there's some simple adjustment dial hidden on the pedal base that I've not been able to discover but am having diminishing hope over.

there really is no adjustment. You can however move the clutch and brake pedals by adjusting the threaded rods.

a friend of mine (BradC (https://thefactoryfiveforum.com/member.php?24131-BradC) on here) used CAD and his CNC to create a pedal extension for my car - maybe hit him up?

Brake pedal being even or even above the gas pedal when pushed is one of the Feds ways to try to help w/ unintended acceleration. Get the brake so dang high that people may be less likely to use the gas pedal as a brake. I prefer my brake pedal to be even w/ the gas at rest so, when pushed, it is little lower than the gas so I can twist my ankle a bit and tap the gas while braking to do a heel and toe downshift.
