Default Slave Cylinder vs downpipe fail questions

My dp and integra stock clutch slave arent going to play nice space-wise, so looking for options I found the prelude slave cylinder may work, or a puller slave, or tilton hydro release bearing in order of increasing complexity.

Does anyone know if the prelude's slave stroke is the same length as the integra? What are the modification procedures for the lude's slave cylinder to fit the integra and function correctly?
Do I need to pull the rod from the integra slave and install it in the prelude's or anything like that?

Thanks for help and insight.

I usually have the aftearket performance parts made to fit around the OEM parts that make the car run. Not the other way around.

Best bet is to have the DP fitted to the car. If there is a competent fab shop in your area you should call them first. I'm fairly sure it would be less $$$ and time to have the DP remade or even modified.

no, an h/f series (prelude) slave will not work, the 2 bolt holes will not line up with a b-series (integra)

Look into aftermarket slave cylinders. You can get a puller style.

The way the turbo is sitting even with the tightest bend available there will be clearance issues.
I would need a new mani.
