Couple of minor updates...

Forgot to post up the pedal set a while back. I do a tonne of left foot braking, and have always loved a larger middle pedal. I mounted these up a while back, but forgot to post some photos. The angle cut lets my size 12 shoe escape the gas pedal for those times when I need to heel-toe.


I also decided to man-up this week. I have no fear of anything mechanical, but tuning the carbs still makes me lose sleep. I guess its like my last frontier...I can get 'em running, and do some gross adjustments, but I set 'em up rich to avoid melting down the motor. Time to step up my game!


...course, fitting this into the bug is going to be interesting. Innovate's first instruction is "zip tie the LC-1 under the car..." um, no. That's not going to work.


Oh hey, I think I'll install a gauge, shouldn't be too big a deal!


The first 15min...


An hour later (not exaggerating), and the harness is through. Stupid foam.


Tucked up beside the carb, away from the rocks.


And, somehow, it would appear I forgot shots of the dash. Whoops.
