Yep Rob, that'll work. I think that Bill R's reply to you about lateral
spacing was for the standard rudder pedals. The flight adjustable ones
certainly do have plenty of side to side room. Another thing that will
work well if you're tall is to mount the firewall end of the pedal
assembly to the firewall at a vertical angle so that the pedal assembly
slants downward toward the pilot, putting the aft end of the assembly
(and therefore the subfloor) an inch or so lower than it would be if you
mounted it perpendicular (vertically speaking) to the firewall. To do
this I put two AN4 bolts through a counter sunk piece of 3/8 phenolic
and bonded this stud assembly to the firewall with a hysol/flox mixture
acting as a "wedge" between the phenolic and the firewall.  Good luck.
