Thanks to everyone with the help on the hydro info. I destroyed a aod and decided to go with a t-5. Well as it goes i might as well put a 5.0 fi in it along with it. I pulled the carbed 302/ aod and will try to document the change over. Lots of thanks to the young lady Kelsey who just wanted to know how to work on a car. Also have found this engine tilter that i cant live without.

Couple of comments of mine. Is that angle of the slave going to be more level when installed? What is the bore and stroke of that slave? What size of master cylinder are you using? Most masters have a 1" stroke and you need about 1 1/2" at the slave.

Clutch fork gets just about centered in that hole when it all goes together, so that angle should disappear.
 
Where did you get your slave cylinder and bracket and how much did they cost?
 
Just got my injectors back from the cleaners, and will put the top intake toghether this weekend and start hooking up the engine wiring. As for the bracket and cylinder, I ordered them from the Mustang Depot, they have the bracket for $105.00 and a link to the Chassis Depot for the cylinder $56.00. I bought the an3 adapters for the cylinder yesterday and will order the master cylinder an3 adapters today. The CNC cylinder is a 3/4 bore and I understand the early rangers are also 3/4 bore, hopefully i will be ok.
