Can anyone point me in the right direction? Looking for a complete kit if one is available. Thanks!

You might also be able to adapt the bellhousing and clutch slave cylinder from a '60-'62 to work as well.
Just out of curiosity, though, any reason you're wanting a hydraulic clutch?

With the new kit the brake pedal hangs so I'm thinking I won't like one hanging and one on the floor so my thought was to go with a hydraulic kit for ease of making both the clutch and brake pedal hang. Anyone have any other thoughts or options maybe I missed? | | | | | Joined: Feb 2004 Posts: 29,778 Kettle Custodian (pot stirrer) | | Kettle Custodian (pot stirrer) Joined: Feb 2004 Posts: 29,778 | Simple- - - -build a bracket to mount a mid-1960's Dodge slave cylinder to operate a regular Chevy throwout fork. Use any aftermarket master cylinder you choose that provides the right bore size ratio between master and slave cylinder to make the pedal effort correct. Or, use the appropriate Dodge clutch master cylinder and adapt a swing pedal assembly to push it.
Then there's also the racing-type inside-the-bellhousing hydraulic throwout assembly if you want to spend waaaaaayyyy too much money.

I own a '67 Dodge truck with the aforementioned hydraulic clutch and I hate it. You get no pedal feel. Worst driving stick shift I've ever owned. Planning to convert it to an auto after my '46 Chevy is done. | | | | | Joined: Jan 2008 Posts: 4,961 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Jan 2008 Posts: 4,961 | I had several vehicles with hydraulic clutches and I'm real glad I no longer own them. | | |
