Has anyone installed a Modern Driveline Hydraulic clutch kit. I'm putting a T-5 with a 5.0 (1983) in my 67. The 67 was an automatic and I already have the pedal assembly. I was going to buy the JMC kit but they are on a long back order and there is a waiting list to buy it. I started looking around for other kits but can't spend more than about $500 and I don't want to go with a cable kit. Plus their cable kit won't fit with my headers (Hooker SC). The MD kit looks a bit more complicated than the JMC. I don't understand how the hydraulic TO bearing works. Just wondering how anyone likes this kit and how hard it was to install. Other suggestions welcome too.

Its great, I have the exact same setup, exact same car, except I have a Windsor block. Modern Driveline only sells good stuff and they know what they're doing. They have good tech support too.

I'm running their setup with the McLeod Slave/TOB slip on combo on my Toploader. I don't like the clutches they use, but the hydraulic clutch linkage is very trouble free. McLeod slave/TOB and a Wilwood master cylinder, so their stuff is high quality.

I looked at their website
http://www.safepay.net/cgi-bin/shop/cart.cgi?db=mddata.txt&category=Hydraulic&merchant=moderndriveline

I could not locate a specific kit for a 65-66 Mustang. Some of the parts were above $400. Which components are necessary for a T-5?
