Hydraulic Clutch

Hydraulic Clutch
So i have been looking at hydraulic clutch setups lately and i am not sure how they work. I am converting my car to a t5 but i am using the stock bellhousing with an adapter plate. I know that the stock clutch disengages when the pivot arm is pushed to the rear of the car, but all the hydraulic clutch kits i see look like they push the pivot arm towards the front of the car. Is that because the kits i have seen are being used with a late model 5.0 bellhousing?
I would like to run a hydraulic clutch, but its looking like my only option is to custom build something or use a hydraulic throw out bearing
any thoughts?

i have looked at several different setups and i cant decide if i want to use a push type slave cylinder and make a bracket to mount in front of the pivot arm or use a pull type cylinder and mount it behind the pivot arm
either way would work, i would just have to get the engine and trans in the car and see which would be easier to fabricate
or just use a hydraulic throw out bearing

Lots of discussion, but I've yet to see a viable application.
There was an example on MustangSteve's site once about using a cable and then building a bellcrank that would pull from the aft.
