Is the Hipo clutch set a direct bolt in for the A code 4 speed ?
The reaso I am asking is when I push in the clutch after instaling it . It makes all kinds of a racket . Is it just in need of adjusting . It seems to disengage alright. The peddle is a little low but I am able to switch gears with out a problem. When I push it in though I get a clattering sound

Sounds like possible bad throwout bearing. The clutch pedal shouldn't be low and needs to be adjusted to be roughly even with brake pedal. I would adjust first to see if that would take care of the noise.. if not, then perhaps the throwout bearing.
