Hi Paul
I think the accelerator linkage is too low. On my RK and on my special it is mounted on the bulkhead about 3” higher than yours. The accelerator lever is mainly on the engine side of the bulkhead and only the pedal comes through into the cockpit.
From your photos you seem to have lots of room to site the linkage higher up on new brackets. Fabricate a new accelerator lever attached directly to the end of the linkage. It will mean that the accelerator pedal can be sited well below the brake pedal.
Cheers
Howard
