Default Skyline cossie clutch release

I was wondering what people have used for the centre push clutch release.

The box I bought has the cossie bell housing welded on (by MK for previous owner) there is a centre push in the bundle but it seems the main shaft in to the gearbox needs machining down to allow the smaller bearing and before I remove any metal I would prefer to use a bigger diameter centre push but not sure if that would work with the cossie clutch cover plate?

What have others used? Thanks in advance.

Lots of views but unfortuantely no answers yet.

I can see that AP do a big range of diameters for the slave cylinders but I still need to find out how critical the diameter is for the cossie clutch cover and what throw it needs as they seem to vary 12 mm to 18mm, I guess the longer the better and just adjust the pedal stop in the car?
