I’m looking for a floor mounted fly by wire pedal, better yet an adapter to convert my existing pedal to fly by wire, I’m coming up empty.  I tried searching summit and come up with about 3,000 hits… I made it through 3 pages of not what i want and gave up Kartek says they don’t have anything.  

Am I stuck modifying an OEM pedal?

I mounted the dbw pedal under the back seat and attached my existing throttle cable to that one. So essentially 2 pedals.

I kinda want to that away from having a cable at all.   I might buy some stock SXS pedal and take a band saw and bench grinder to it and fashion something I can mount right behind my existing pedal with a short solid rod linkage.

That’s what I did. Took a stocker from a corvette or maybe it was GTO that I got with my ls2, then just sort of chopped it up a little and shoehorned and welded it back together. Kept my stock foot pedal. 3 seasons and no issue. I really wanted to avoid the extra cable. It has a super responsive feel this way, there is zero free play.

love that throttle rhythm matching in between the whoops or wherever. Give it a quick little blip and let off before the suspension unpacks and the tires start to really slip, what a great feeling. Brap brap braaap... Never felt the same before with a spongey cable setup, I won’t be going back.

That may be the exact same pedal setup I have in my SU, I do have CNC break and clutch. 

 
Here is what I came up with, It’s off a CanAm.  I was afraid the body might get in the way of my foot going from gas to break but not even close

Here was my solution to this issue of using DBW.  Made a simple bracket to hold the DBW pedal.  Found the correct angle for 1:1 ratio of the CNC pedal to the DBW pedal and had a stub welded to the CNC pedal.  Cut off the excess pedal,  used adjustable heims/linkage.  This setup has been flawless since 2016.  Thanks to the great tuner @Kansas T  locally there is not any lag with DBW.
