that looks about right, i just cut the left side off with an angle grinder and installed the RST pedal covers on it which require drilling holes in the pedal itself.

this is the best pic i have...

put a bolt with 2 washers on the rear mount of the pedal and welded in a rear brace to stop it from flexing down.





put some pressure on it before i added the brace




got the pedal marked out to be cut.

You do know there is a very,very long thread on the t56 swap here. I've had mine going on 4 years and love it only thing I broke was the master cylinder mount, pushes the ms out of the firewall. I made a steel sleeve and cut the square patternin it and slid in from the inside. Your gonna love it!!!!
