Hydraulic clutch system reservoir location.

[Mike65 475]

I am in the process of installing the hydraulic clutch system in my 69 Coupe & was looking for any one who installed one in their Mustang & where they located the hydraulic system reservoir.

Not sure I have a good picture, but I mounted mine on the back side of the shock tower.  Not alot of room back there.

Could you take a pic of it for me?.

I mounted mine on the "gutter"rail on the top side of the fire wall just inboard of the brake booster

I bent a piece of aluminum and mounted it on the same flange that the export brace bolts to. I will try to post pics

bosephus, thanks for the pics. I will see if mine will fit there tomorrow.

Thanks guys for the pics & info. Looking from the front of the car I mounted the hydraulic clutch system fluid reservoir on a L bracket to the flange of where the cowl & the firewall are spot welded together over the r/s of the power brake booster near the hood hinge.

Hi everyone - I'm in the process of restoring my '69 Mach 1. It has a 351W with a 3-speed manual transmission. Can you please recommend a hydraulic clutch system? Any help would be appreciated.

What trans are you going to be using?.

Thanks Mike. I'm keeping it stock - 3-speed manual transmission, but stroking the 351W to a 393.

Regards, Peter

Peter, make sure you also replace the bushing in the pedal hanger with a roller bearing for the clutch pedal.  This link will show you how to do it.  http://www.mustangsteve.com/clutchbearings.html

Here is a link to the kit I used. http://www.cjponyparts.com/roller-bearing-clutch-and-brake-pedal-support-bushing-kit-1965-1970/p/HW1015/
