I think the T56 uses a hydraulic throw-out bearing, but I could be wrong since I've only messed with GM applications. (Gen-4 Camaros & Trans Ams)

Technically no cable difference between a T56 and the more common TKO/TKX setups. Depending on the engine/bell housing you're using might be clocked in a slightly different location. But other than that, no difference. An internal hydraulic throw-out bearing is certainly an option on any of the setups we run here, including the T56. I have one in the T56 in my Coupe. But not required or standard.

Engine and transmission are already installed and engine is running. If I could do over, I would have done the hydraulic setup. Just trying to determine which Ford Performance cable I should get. Thanks

You could still put in a slave cylinder setup for the fork without having to pull the transmission. Need another master cylinder too though. Ford performance cables are the way to go from what I've read here. I just don't know which one, sorry.

here's a post by Paul in a similar thread that contains the part number. I'll leave it to the forum to tell if that part number is still accurate though. https://thefactoryfiveforum.com/showthread.php?31967-Clutch-cable-recommendations&p=365038&viewfull=1#post365038

To actually answer the question asked rather than offer an opinion the cable required is for a SN95 Mustang which is adjustable at the fork end. If you’re dealing with a roadster you’ll need a Fox Mustang non adjustable cable and firewall adjuster.
