Default Converting from pull type clutch

I was wondering if anyone has converted from a pull type clutch to a concentric slave cylinder set up? I am wanting to put a twin disc that is in a viper or the new "SS" vette in my car sometime in the future. And I am wondering how hard it would be to use a CSC setup and get the right stack-up so the clutch works properly. Any suggestions and information will be greatly appreciated.

Because those cost like $1200. I can get a viper or ss vette clutch for wholesale or maybe free.

Meh I think your in for quite an adventure to try and make that conversion happen. I had all sorts of issues with those pull clutches too and the cost is insane I know. I looked into all options and there are guys out there who have done it but its not easy ( $$$ ) try cz28 you'll find lots of info there

Good luck

Yeah, I posted there, but I haven't got any responses. I am in no hurry to do this as we are still testing the ss vette clutch. I thought it might be pretty hard, but it is something I would like to try. Does anyone have any suggestions?
