If you're not going for the stock look, go hydraulic. Easier on the leg and easier to install. Only go mechanical if you're: a) going for a stock appearing resto b) like me, don't trust hydraulic gizmos.

The way I described the first hydraulic clutch vehicle I ever drove: "it feels like you are stepping in a bucket of mashed potatoes." I can't stand the feel (or, really, lack of feel). Go mechanical.
I'm glad I'm not the only one who feels this way about hyd clutchs. While I got used to the one on my Cruiser, I still can't get used to the one on my Dakota. It just crabs too much starting from a dead stop. And according to my books they can't be adjusted? I wish for the days of mechanical clutchs again!
