remote pedal box

Has anyone here made up a pedal box to use for actuating a clutch mockup? Engine and gearbox
would be out of the car and, of course, the clutch type(s) would be non stock.
My machinist guy here had a MGB clutch pedal and master on a stand and it was nice to use when
I was putting together my 5 speed with a 4 speed bellhousing. Adjustments one does not want to
make when installed in the car. Unfortunately he loaned it out and moved and hasn't seen it since.
I was hoping to find a pedal of the same ratio as the Elan's and it looks like the TR6 might be close.
I was thinking of using its pedal hanger and constructing a stand to stabilize it.
Anyone else do something like this?

Sorry no help with the pedal box but intrigued about mating 5 speed box to 4 speed bell housing. Care to share details ?
Cheers

Unfortunately, I don't know too much detail; I bought it this way. Basically a plate was brazed on the
bellhousing and I assume some of the bell was cut back. I still needed to move the bell rearward so
I had a 3/4 inch plate cut to match and it allowed proper indexing of the bellhousing.
The remote pedal box allowed me to determine proper fulcrum height.
