A remote-mounted Hydraulic clutch Master cylinder may also be needed if there is not enough room in the engine compartment.

Overview
Mount the clutch master inside the passenger compartment -- under the dash -- and connect it to the gearbox slave cylinder via a hydraulic line.
- Fabricate L-shaped bracket, bolt (or weld) to the under-dash steering column brace
- Lengthen clutch pedal, attach the master rod ABOVE the fulcrum
- Place the filler tube under the dash, connect to master via rubber hose
Not enough room after a big Engine Swap? Move the clutch master under the dash!
PIGDOG
PIGDOG used a A20 Celica (1970-1977) master cylinder and replaced the Reservior with a banjo fitting
Celica first generation A20 (A21, A22, A25, A27, etc.)
Banjo fittings are available at auto parts stores in generic metric sizes. PIGDOG used one off a Nissan Skyline#R33 power steering pump.
