Converting 72 F100 4WD to hydraulic clutch.

I have a 72 F100 4wd with a 4 speed and I just did a 460 swap in it. However, for several reasons I pretty much need to switch to a hydraulic clutch. I used an 83 F250 bellhousing that had a hydraulic clutch so the slave will mount stock. My question is how to I mount the master cylinder? Is there a conversion kit available for this? Will the 83 pedal set bolt in? I'm pretty sure thats a no. Anyone done this?

Check the early Mustang places as they have kits to change to the new 5 and 6 speeds into early Mustangs. It might give you ideas and parts. You could also look at the 80-98 trucks for an external cylinder on the clutch fork or a hydraulic throwout bearing that fits in the bellhousing.
