Hydraulic clutch pedal assembly?

What have you guys used or seen that works well for putting a hydraulic clutch assembly into a TF?
The goal is to put hydroboost brakes & hydraulic clutch mounted on the firewall. I say the firewall, but really, I mean "wherever it is going to fit easiest and or cheapest"
Figured I'd ask a question as opposed to reinvent the wheel...
Thanks!

It's a '57.
I'm pretty sure at this point it will get a 4.8 LR4 + NV3500 manual trans. The 4.8 is already in the shed, so that part is all but certain.
I'd like to minimize fabrication, since I am not yet a skilled fabricator. If need be, though, I can get help, struggle through or farm out.

i have a hydroboost mounted under floor using the stock pedal
still lots of room to use the stock clutch pedal
firewall or under floor: either one will require fabrication.
you want cheap, use the stock pedals in stock location
also keeps the firewall clean
