clutch help

hey guys, I need some help. I've searched just about every forum there is and have come up short. I have even done a lot of reading on 4btswaps page. I'm currently putting a 6bt and getrag 5 speed in my 1968 Chevy c-30. motor mounts are done, trans mounts are almost done, but I'm have trouble finding info on clutch master cylinder set ups. I'm going to run the hydraulic clutch. what's the best way to do it, should I find a wilwood master with the same dimensions as the stock dodge? or use a stock dodge master and somehow fix it to the pedal assembly? advice and pictures would be awesome

You might want to look at a clutch slave cylinder from a 2004-04 GTO or Corvette maybe. I used one of these when I put a T56 Tremic in my 67 Chevelle. Just had to get a bracket and remote speed bleeder from Tick Performance. (not 100% sure on bracket) h*ll to get old.

Re: clutch help

Check out American Powertrain, they specialize in that kind of stuff. They were really helpful on a buddy's 62 Vette

Re: clutch help

I installed a hydraulic master cylinder from an off road shop, JAMAR is the brand. They also offer rebuild kits for them. Straight forward install. Hole through the firewall and a 3/8" hole in my clutch pedal. Works great.
