Now the next question, when replacing the clutch master cylinder since I have the ax 15 trans in my 87, do I go for the 87-90 on rock auto or the 91-92 ones? 

I changed to the later master cylinder and the only thing you need to do is to drill out the mounting hole for the pedal. It does have a different style of fitting which would require a new line.

The one I have now has that pin fitting style,

do you have a part number for that AA one? Also the fitting size and line I need to get from master to slave?

I also used the Advance Adapters hose. I used the 716130-60 hose, and 716130, 716130TJ adapters. To go to the 91+ master and slave cylinders.

It comes with multiple adapters. They do sell individual adapters and hose if you can figure out what to get. Summit racing had the whole kit in stock for delivery the next day, so that's the way that I went.

Will these will work with the internal slave cylinder instead of an external?

The fitting you want for the the internal slave cylinder should be 716130F from advance adapters if you use their -3 AN hose.

 

Edit: The kit that @Htchevyii has all the adapters you should need. Part # 716130IR. That kit has only a 42 inch long hose. I used the 60 inch hose and am not sure if a hose 18 inches shorter would work.

Oh, I forgot about that. I did use the longer hose kit just to make sure that it fit. It was definitely longer than needed, but I don't know if the shorter one would have worked or not. There is also a kit with the longer hose available.

Update:

Changed the oil to Redline MT90

Replaced the MC and Slave and replaced the clutch with a M-PACT01034WSST1X Clutch kit.  Replaced the lines and fluid with Dot 4. had to use an adjustable clutch push rod on the Mc because it was to short. 
When I let off the clutch ever so slightly, it shutters and feels likes it still wants to grab, no matter how high the rpm’s are. Idk if it’s a new clutch or if it’s the type of clutch it is. Truck still grinds going into 3rd and 4th. Haven’t drove it enough yet to see if there is anymore issues like it was having, still sounding like it’s the synchro’s. do I guess next big project will just be to replace the whole transmission see that buying synchros and having a shop do that work will be roughly the same cost.
