Clutch Slave
I'm thinking to convert my '56 F100 to the hanging pedals from the '57 through 60 F100. The '56 uses a mechanical clutch, so I'll need to add a master and slave. What I'd love to see would be a photo showing how the slave mounts to a Y-Block.
I'll be putting a new dual reservoir/boosted brake master too as part of a disk brake upgrade. I'd use the '56 kit for the axle, but would use the master compatible with the '57 up.

On my 60, the slave cylinder bolted up to the bellhousing, then connected to the fork with an adjustable rod(my trans was a T-98). If you are running the 57-60 pedals in the stock configuration, I suspect the brake and clutch masters will be too close together to run a vacuum booster.

You might look into later-model hydraulic clutch components. I know the ZF 5 & 6 speeds were hydraulic, as well as NV3500's, 4500's, and SM465's in the OBS GM trucks. I actually have a ZF5 that I'll one day swap for the C6 in mine once I get the brakes updated...
