One other point which is worth noticing
is that we have lost .25" pedal travel.

On F.746 the Phantom I pedal travel is
shown as 4.5", on N.scheme 2671 pedal travel is shown
as 4.25".

Care should be taken that Coachbuilders
do not fit unnecessary thick mats under the pedals
thereby still further reducing the available pedal travel.
