manual trans and clutch set up????

Thinking of swapping from auto to manual trans in my 54/s10 project. Can anybody tell me or show me how difficult it is to set up hydraulic clutch. And can I just use the clutch /brake setup from the s10? Thanks

Re: manual trans and clutch set up????

Biggest thing I've been told is to match the bore in the master cylinder with the bore in the slave (assuming they're out of different vehicles). You should be able to get adapters to AN fittings and then be able to run a braided hose to make it easy.
