swapped sm 465 Mech linkage to hydraulic

I just completed this swap on my 86 fullsize blazer. All i could find was bits and pieces of info on this swap. Everything i used was stock of the shelf parts except for the bracket I made for the Slave cylinder. This isnt a tech write up just info i gathered and how i did mine so maybe to help others. i am going to try and post some pics.
1. The holes in the firewall are indeed there, even a center hole dimple so you dont even have to guess at the center for the master cylinder. I got it Oreillys.
2. picture shows master and resivoir mounted
3. just some pics of the bracket.
The resivoir, hose,cap came from LMC. The hose was way cheaper thru them
The master cylinder and slave came from Oreilys.
Oh, and that is the mechanical clutch , clutch arm.
I dont have pics of under the dash, its prettty straight foward. I am temp using a bolt thru the clutch pedal till i find a piece of rod to weld in.
The master cylinder rod misses the clutch pedal by about three inches and the retun spring hookup needs to be cut off the clutch pedal.
Hope some of this info and pics help help as i am not a typing tech about explaining things. All in all a very easy swap to do, and alot easier to mash the clutch in
