Exelent work!! Can You send parts numbers and manufacturer of those parts, the master / slave cylinder? It would be easyer to get parts...  Living little bit far away US, in Northern Europe Finland! In which car you have done that swap? Cheesy

Nice stuff Sweatybetty! Can you send me that list also? So all I need from the original set-up is the pedals,  bellhousing and internals?  4 speed 4 speed 4 speed 4 speed 4 speed 4 speed 4 speed

heres the links

this was pretty simple to do. i did have to fab the linkage from the pedal to the m.c. and a bracket for the rubber line and the bracket for the slave cylinder. i havent tried it out yet but theoretically it should work. also had to make a 1/8" plate to back up the firewall. thanks for all the comps  thank you

Any results on this yet?   We are needing to make a choice on one or the other. The hydraulic would make more room that doing the Z bar when it comes time to run the headers..

Pictures of how you did the brackets would be great...

Thanks
