I use Day's setup its awesome but I run the mustang Steve clutch pedal on the bearing supported bracket which is also awesome..and I have a 66 so I think im probably just wasting time as I gather the pedal assembly is not identical...I dont know.

Anyone else? I am running a scott drake clutch pedal, car was originally a automatic. Also, if someone could point me to a good thread for installing one of these hydraulic kits. Where to drill holes in the dash etc, I would appreciate it, thanks!

Here is JamesW detailed install information:

Here are some pics of my 66 install and has a picture of the new hole I had to drill:

Here is a unique way to get a Hydraulic clutch to work with power brakes:

You will need to determine where the rod needs to be attached after the master has been installed. The main thing is you want it level and not binding. My original hole was to high so I had to drill a new one.

Good Luck and Be Safe

Everyone keeps talking about the original hole, but my car does not have one. The closest thing I can find is a covered circle (1-1/2" diameter) but its a couple inches left of the brake booster. I am running manual brakes on the car. Thanks.
