Question Pedal Setup W/ Manual Trans?

Hi,
I'm new to the board. Just purchased a Hunter kit in halfway stage. I need to install motor and trans, electronics, interior, etc... hope I can get some good advice here. I need to find a decent pedal assembly to work w/ this thing. I am looking for a 5spd too. Has anyone installed a slick setup? Hydraulic or cable clutch? The footwell gets pretty narrow at the front. I might have to drive w/ the clutch foot ontop the framerail. I'm planning on running a sbc.. 383. I have the parts for that, but need assistance w/ the trans. Someone has to have done this already. Thanks for your help.. you'll be hearing from me some more.

Go with either Tilton or Wilwood pedal sets,.... both come in hanging and floor mounted, single or dual brake M/C. Check out their web sites. Fluid clutch is easier to install, but your choice of slave cylinders is either internal, or external push or pull. Some degree of fabrication to correctly install the external slave is required. Internal slaves are very good, but when they develop problems/leaks, you have to remove the tranny to get at it, a big disadvantage compared to the external types.
Sorry, can't give you any info on the tranny selection for the bow tie engine.
