Got a mate to weld a lug on the side of mine. Then I drilled a tapped it and bolted an e30 bmw slave too it. Made a small boss that welded to my fork for the slave push rod to sit in.

Dont matter really. I've the right hump with mine lol I fitted my box back in the car and fitted my old block in to make sure everything fitted. The slave is so close to the tunnel it will be impossible to get a pipe fitting on it. I'd have to mod the tunnel with a hammer lol so it's going in the bin and I'm fitting a centre push

funny I was just thinking that looking at the bit you got welded on, looks quite bulky,
need to keep the slave as close to the box as possible,
I had to professionally mod my tunnel with a hammer also lol

Its not that which hits the hole body of the cylinder dose. The cylinder is right up against the gear box body. There's no way I'd get a fitting in the top. I'd have to bash the floor the hole length of the body of the cylinder. And Fook knows how I'd get the bolts in or out lol. Centre push for me now.
