Hyrdaulic Clutch

Looking to swap myC6 for a NV4500. I need to install a Hydraulic clutch and would like to find a supplier for a hanging unit rather than a floor mounted one. The power brake pedal is a hanging unit... Any help would be welcome .

Bump, Looks like a wealth of knowledge here, has anyone put a fire wall clutch pedal in with a Hydraulic clutch?

There are commercially built aftermarket mounts available and from many sources.

Been looking on the internet and not found much outside of Willwood. Mid Fifties has brake mounts but not clutch mounts.

which unit did you use, concidering the Kugel unit comes with booster and cylinders for both clutch and brake it may not be too far cost wise from individual components. I'm wondering if I will have enough vaccum to operate a booster

I used a 93-97 camaro pedal set and brake booster along with the camaro hydraulic system. The pedals come with the mount for the clutch master, just have to mod the firewall to make it work. I also had to extend the pedals but it all works great.

This is the clutch pedal during mockup

A pedal set is normally around $75, brand new master is maybe $30 at rock auto, universal hydraulic line kit for this master is around $125, but not sure what slave you are using so you may need a different style hose kit.

I am sure there is a Ford option but I am familiar with these parts so I stick with them.

I used the bare assembly, and sourced the clutch master, brake master and booster locally, as I get a good discount locally.....
