Mechanical clutch vs. hydraulic

What is the difference between a hydraulic clutch and a mechanical? I'm looking at a t56 that is made for 82-92 camaros. It's setup to use a mechanical clutch. Another option is a stock t-56 out of a 94-97 f-body with hydraulic clutch. Which is a better clutch system?

Ok, I am not sure if the t56 made for 82-92 camaro is a mechanical clutch. It is the t56 that spohn.net sells. Anybody know what the clutch is? Is it a better clutch setup than the t56's from the 94-97 f-bodys?

I'd be willing to bet its the same, and you just use your existing '84-92 hydraulic linkage, like all the guys that pull a T56 from a 4thgen.
