You might contact Mike Forte at Forte's Parts Connection, a sponsor of this forum out of the Boston (Framingham, MA) area. Mike makes and sells a really slick little hydraulic slave unit that is very compact and is a "pusher" type as opposed to some that try to "pull" with a cylinder. All external, normal throwout bearing and fork.Roger
Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.

Got kit from Novak..Bracket to slave cylinder had to be cut and
never could get it to exactly match the hole in the clutch fork.
Did hook it up though,mounted master cyl on fire wall...Rod goes
in 4 inchs without any fluid, and only about 1 inch max if that
with fluid. I stripped the teeth on the clutch shaft. Also seemed
to get som binding at bellhousing.

Installing in 1957 chev with BB
You're welcome Mike, glad it worked out for you. Roger, it's taken a few years but my inventory of excess parts has shrunk a fair bit from 1 1/2 garage stalls to about an eight by eight space. ...
