BEC bike hydraulic clutch master cylinder

To those who are using the original bike m/c for the clutch - How are you mounting the m/c and how are you actuating it from the pedal? I have a few ideas of my own but would like to see if there is a concensus or an option that stands out.
Thanks in advance.
Richard

I’m going to use a bike rear brake cylinder as it is easier to mount!

I weld a bracket at right angles to the frontplate of the pedal box with 2 holes to bolt into the original m/cyl mounts, cut off the end of the ali casting on the clutch m/cyl (in my case old ZX10) as it's not required & grind down the end of the car operating pushrod (in my case MR2) to the size of the bike pushrod - 4mm dia IIRC. Does the job a treat & looks neat when finished. HTH
