Here is my mod to allow the 650B rudder pedals fit long legs - 34" - 36" Inseam. Pedal bearing per plans 6B9. Rudder pedal bars angled forward for more leg room and favorable foot angle. Centerline of Pilots RT pedal is 3 7/8" to firewall; Pilots L pedal CL is 4 3/16"
Mini meat loaf pans form firewall extension for toe brake arm. These must be steel, not aluminum. Cut a clearance hole in firewall for brake levers, check fit and then rive pans to firewall with fireproof sealant. Also, for more leg room, don't wear your athletic shoes with thick soles. A moccasin style driving shoe gave me about 5/8" more leg room.

Thats what I love about EAB Aviaton.  You get a tailored fit instead of off the rack.
