Clutch kit ideas for a toploader

[Red Lehr]

Greetings fellas !
I need some input on my 64 Comet build. We will have a 427 somewhere around 700 HP with a 4 speed toploader big in big out (for now....)
The rack on the Mustang 2 front end has forced the engine to sit higher. I wanted to go with a manual clutch /brake set up but I'm going to be cramped for room and it looks like the best choice will be a hydraulic clutch.
What would be the best clutch kit for mostly street use and some abuse at the track ?
In the picture you can see that the clutch fork will be almost even with the frame rail.
Thanks in advance for all the help !

I have a build like yours but in a fairlane 66 I went with a mal woods under dash clutch master cylinder and a hydraulic throw out bearing mal woods also made my clutch to suite 700hp street strip use. My build is still ongoing I saved a lot of space with under dash master cylinder. Mal woods is in Australia not sure if any one in the USA dose peddle box mods like he dose. I am very happy with mine peddle box mod cost 600aud billet steel flywheel clutch presure plate and all arp mounting hardware was 1500aud. He custom builds the throw out bearings . He makes a new front hat for bulnose top loaders.

Red, I would use a McLeod RXT kit.  You won't have any issues with it.   That's about the only kit you'll have to work with a big input Toploader, unless you go with a "slipper" clutch.   The RXT uses a hydraulic throw out bearing only.
