Default Photos of hydraulic clutch install?

Hey guys ,
looking for pics of a hydraulic clutch install for a TKO or equivalent. I need to see how the pedal rod comes through the firewall and where the remote resevoir is located on a 69 Camaro firewall. With my Lemons race headers, I need to see where everything needs to sit and if clearances are going to be an issue.

I modded an ATS bracket to use with my 69 Camaro big block and TKO. No issue at all with Lemons headers, which I also had (may not have been Lemons in this pic, not sure).

That was my concern. Here is what I have to deal with. The PS and PB may effect things with a hydraulic install.

Default clutch box!

hopefully this will be helpful. I installed a hydraulic clutch master in my Javelin. I have power brakes and had to figure out a way to get the clutch master high enough on the firewall to be able to connect to the clutch pedal as close to the top pivot (where all the leverage is) as possible. my solution was to make a box that allowed me to bring the clutch master into the interior of the car a few inches. this tucks the remote reservoir clutch master up under the power brake booster. you can read about it here: clutch box install

Hope this helps.

I appreciate the info...that's a great idea! Unfortunately cutting up the car is not an option for me. If there was a way to mount the master under the dash, that would be ideal.
