Default Burtons Hydraulic Clutch

Hi Guys, Ive just been on Ebay and bought a second hand but unused still in the box Burtons Hydraulic Clutch mechanism for £100.
Could any of you who have used this conversion please tell me what other parts you used and any special procedures that need doing to fit it, My engine and box are currently out of the car due to the block cracking so there are no access issues.
Thanks in advance.
Spud.

If you look for a similar thread within the last few weeks on here someoen put a link to the magazine feature of it, much better way with piccies than explaining, but a doddle with engine out.

Yep,

I've that conversion - I chucked the Bleed Tube thing in the bin and replaced with braided hose and a Bulk Head Bleed Nipple.

So I have both the feed to the thing and the bleed coming out at the gearbox tunnel near the Bulk Head.

In theory I could bleed the Clutch by myself while sitting in the drivers seat.

Obviously this is in a MKII Escort and inside is stripped but it's "hopefully" going to make my life easier in the long run.

If that's not the "Kiss of Death"
