On my AD with SBC and Block huggers, I went with a hydraulic clutch with a firewall mounted master and an external slave. I'm a stick shift diehard, but I wanted it to be a little easier on my aging leg. We first tried the stock pedal using a frame mounted master, but the dimensions (pedal travel above converted to horizontal movement below at the frame)would not work. I wanted to use the stock pedal for the look, so the only downside is I had to use a Wilwood firewall mounted pedal.
For a manual clutch with the stock pedal, if you took our first attempt, which was to weld a vertical tab onto the bottom of the existing clutch linkage (which then attached to a horizontal MC), you would then have rearward, horizontal movement. Not enough to operate a master cylinder, but maybe enough to disengage a manual clutch?
