Cup 240, close to every parts are available from Lotus to transform it, like pedal, cable, bushing except:
-Bracket to hold the cable inside the cabin, I can provide picture if you want,
-bracket to hold the cable to the pedal (need a carburator linkage like we find on Weber),
-the bracket to hold the cable on the throttle body side,
-the barrel on the throttle body to have the right size,
-gas pedal stopper back anf for (I think that the back-up when release is not existing on Lotus)
- and the shaft to hold the gas pedal. Don't buy the one by Lotus, they are confused on part number, two differents parts with teh same parts number, they probably revised the drawing whatever the parts is not retrofitable. You need to build in extension shaft.

In my case, since I am running with the original dash, and because I am paranoid, I wanted the possibility to switch with the Lotus ECU in case of trouble with the EFI... OK a lot paranoid... I am running with a 2005 Lotus ECU and 2005 engine hardness (expensive). But if you are fully standalone, for sure, you don't need that. Remember that the dash on the car is drived by the ECU using communication protocole. I think Phil is running a completely different dash connected to his EFI ECU, which is nice, but quite expensive, but nice (maybe a future project for me, don't know...). The original dash communicate with the 2005 ECU or DBW ECU.
