    Switched to swinging pedals on the boys 70 originally had a cable linkage and a short release arm. Want to go hydralic will the factory arm work or do I need a longer one and if so will a gm arm fit in the bell? It's a factory v6.

    FWIW, I have been looking at all manner of jeep wrangler and cj7 Hydraulic master and slave setups. Seems the later ones use a non flare oring style fitting. I was going to fab something up an drake it happen but I think I am going to chuck the big money and get the novak kit. Comes with a special arm and a bracket and slave. its expensive though. In the end it might be too expensive as i get closer to needing that.

    The Novak setup is real nice (running with the SM465 in the '51) - I've made my own with a pull type slave on the T18 setups. They work OK - not as nice as the push one from Novak.
