Default Looking for another Z-Bar setup for `79

After driving my newly purchased `08 Corvette for a few weeks - with it's 6th speed, I realized that the `79 with it's factory clutch setup may have to change. It took a minute to get used to the Corvette; It's a totally different animal being hydraulic vs. totally manual mechanical on the Firebird. It will never be the same, but I wouldn't mind easing up the pedal a bit.
What options are out there? Many years ago I saw someone selling a bearing style z-bar. I can't seem to find it. I'm looking to ease the effort that it takes to push the clutch pedal basically.

Any help would be appreciated.

This looks promising. Anyone have a hydraulic setup?
