I havent but im sure FC-V8 did, I think it has some kind of spacer between the booster and firewall and the fc rod pushes it.

I used a VL turbo (1inch) booster on a VS booster mount and just redrilled the holes.  It worked in my case and the car stops great.

Hey Fat,

I used the VT booster and pedal assembly, this give you an accelerator that mounts to the booster and you only have to modify the firewall a little for it to fit... From memory it took six hours to remove the assembly from the Vt and have it in the FE as it is today.

On the inside I cut the Fe bracket and welded it to the VT pedal assembly so that it still would bolt underneath the instrument cluster.

Give me a call if you want and I can answer any questions about it.

Cheers
Jason.

Hi Fat
            Here is the photo of the bracket that i made up, It bolts to the original master cylinder holes & the VB  brake booster bolts to it. You need to enlarge the hole in firewall that the rod goes through & shorten the rod itself to match the required lengh. Its a simple modification & you can still use the original pedal & assembly.

Cheers
Glenn
