I have a 90 Foxbody stang as my daily driver. The cable actuated clutch, its the thing I hate most about the car.Basically cause of the pedal pressure required to operate the clutch. To stiff for an old guy like me...lol
My left knee and I wholeheartedly agree. 
It's unfortunate that my decade+ of daily driving my Foxbody (and double-clutching every downshift) took such a toll on my body.

Anyway, the only aftermarket clutch setup i've seen available is the one from McCloud,, and the kit is like $600 buck. Thats the only reason I dont have one yet.
The easiest to retrofit would be the hydraulic T-O bearing, but it's also the hardest to repair if anything ever goes wrong with it. Have to remove the trans to get to it.I've seen a couple of interesting "backyard ingenuity" possibilities. Here is a bracket (click "Store", then scroll down to the "T5 clutch bracket" section), and here I think might be the same bracket with a slave cylinder included (click on the "Products" section in the Table of Contents, to "hydraulic clutch parts").
It's just geometry, not rocket science, but bears mentioning in case you hadn't considered it: lowest pedal effort will require longest possible pedal travel while still retaining full release. For such a stiff pressure plate, designing the master and slave cylinder throws to match that need will be crucial. Otherwise, aside from a reduction in cable friction, there's no reason to expect that a hydraulic system would necessarily be any easier to push.
