I would recommend against attaching a pull-type slave to the motor mount bracket. I did mine that way originally, and the problem is that you will get a lot of chatter when engaging the clutch. As the clutch starts to engage, the drivetrain twists, causing the clutch to disengage slightly. Then the drivetrain untwists and the process repeats, resulting in an oscillation.

I had a shop weld a bracket on my (steel) bellhousing and attach a push-type slave made by CNC. It works great.
