I used a stock 99 camaro radiator and fans and t56 from ls1 camaro

for the pedals.......
i used all my stock foxbody pedals, i took the entire assembly out of the car and cut where the factory clutch quadrant went off of the assembly
i then welded a plate onto the rod that goes across so that when the pedal is depressed there is a pushing motion instead of a pulling motion
then.. a very long story short i used the factory ls1 master cylinder and cut the rod and shortened it then threaded it so that the length can be changed and made a bracket that i welded to the factory pedal assembly and braced it up
Works like a charm! but ill be honest it was a pain and took me a while to get it finished
