Default T56 into 1998 Mustang

This is probably an easy question for anyone who has done it. I am putting a T56 onto my LM7 into my 98 mustang GT. I have a Wilwood 7/8" clutch master cylinder, and I am curious what I need for a clutch pedal? Can I use anything from a cavalier/sunfire/grandam/etc... or even modify a mustang pedal with a plunger, or do I need a LS1 manual clutch, or even a Wilwood aftermarket one?

I have searched and for some reason can't find any info and the tranny will be here in 4 days or so.

modify the stock mustang clutch pedal, its easy the hard part is mounting th e clutch master cylinder to the firewall as its a large rubber section. It would be great to find a turbo thunderbird one but I havent had any luck.
email me if you want details
