clutch pedal options for t56 swap?

I wound up with 3 different clutch pedal setups for my t56 swap. I have a mechanical linkage pedal for 82-84, a set from an 85, and also a set from an 02 v6 with just the master. My 93 t56 came with the master and slave and appears in working order. I know the manual pedals won't work, so which of the other two will? I keep seeing/hearing about using a cavalier slave cylinder but I'm not finding much info

Either will.

The Cavalier part is related to using 3rd gen pedal sets. Just use a stock T-56 hydraulic setup if you use the 4th gen set.

The 4th gen is probably the best one to use.

i wound up using the 4th gen set. i liked how the clutch master bracket was one piece, and that the upper mount was removable. the t56 master rod is longer than the t5 it came with, so i may need to shorten it at some point
