Concentric Slave Cylinder on a T5

I'm in the process of acquiring parts for an auto to T5 swap and just realized something. I think the slave cylinder may have to go directly in the path of the header collector on my already customized mid length headers. I could modify them again, but I had the thought that a concentric slave cylinder would easily solve that problem.

The question is… Can a concentric slave cylinder from a late model Camaro with a T56 even be used on a T5 transmission? And if so, what has to be done?

Thanks ahead of time to those who read and respond to this inquiry.

Re: Concentric Slave Cylinder on a T5

I suppose you could call it that. I guess I want to know if anyone has done it before. Could it be as simple as changing the standard throwout bearing guide for the concentric slave unit?

Here's what one looks like if you're not familiar:

Thanks again.
