W58 clutch fork problem

I'm in the middle of swapping a 1JZ into my car, using a 7MGE W58 trans that I had around. I bought a 2JZGE bell housing (MKIV n/a) and put it on the trans, but the mounting pad for the slave cylinder is farther out and the slave cylinder doesn't line up with the clutch fork anymore. Looks like I either need a longer clutch fork, or a slave cylinder that is offset differently. I'm not sure which though.

What do I need to fix this? MKIV n/a clutch fork? or MKIV n/a slave cylinder? or both? :aigo:

(preferably from someone who has actually done this swap and knows for sure what will fit)

Thanks.

I ordered a MKIV non-turbo clutch fork, and it looks like it's longer. I'll be taking the trans down this weekend to find out for sure.

Thanks for the reply, it did look longer, but I still didn't get around to pulling the old one to make sure.... good to know.

I put the project car on hold for now till after christmas. Needs exhaust and tires and a bunch of trim and small detail stuff.
