Can anyone post a couple pics of your stringer mount gas pedal set up... Id rather not drill into the floor if possible.. My pedal seems to fit perfect along the tunnel.. Any tips? thanks  :beer:

Bolt it together with small alunum angle on the inside corners and it will add rigidity.

That's what I had in mind but he doesn't wanna drill through the tunnel, and would rather just grab the stringer.

I had the same style as in Brads picture on my old daytona, mounted to the stringer and never had any problems with it.
