Only possible problem I can see is that would be a 1 to 1 `ratio` ?

Doesnt it really need to pull the cable rather than push??

his engine is in the back I believe, so will have the cable pointing backwards, up the side of the driver.

I find that the top hung pedal gives a better feel for the throttle pedal.The brake pedal is ok floor mounted as it has little travel, but accelerator and clutch feel more natural when top hung.
