I am building a 1966 mustang restomod that includes a cobra T56 mated to a Coyote. Among a never-ending list of custom work, is figuring out a "push type" solution for an external hydraulic slave cylinder. Anyone experimented with a T56 setup like this? I am aware of the internal hydraulic throw out option....dont want it. I am also aware of a pull type external, which wont work because of long tube headers. Pretty close to finding access to CAD and a milling machine.

Here are some pics of my external push slave cyl on a TKO 600.
I bought the main mount from Mike Forte. He supplies a lot of parts for Factory Five kit cars.
Since you have access to machine shop equipment it would be a piece of cake. Be sure to match up your master cyl bore to slave bore size. It affects pedal effort and length of stroke. I moved my attachement point out to the end of the clutch fork to reduce pedal effort.
