I don't recall the details, but I rebuilt my master cylinder several years ago. If you can locate the clutch master cylinder, it should be obvious where the nuts are.

ive found the clutch master cylinder no problem but the nuts are on the otherside of the firewall, the clutch master cylinder is so high that it doesnt seem that the nuts would be under the dash more like theyd b thru the dash... but everyone who has done this doesnt make any mention of this, i can take a pic if necesary

Most of the clutch master cylinders I've messed with have had bolts but either way they should be in the same spot. Lets say you have the motor and tranny out, you are looking directly at the slave cylinder from behind and you should see one of the bolts .5-1 inch up and the other .5 to 1 inch down. They might be offset about .5 inch with the top being pointed more towards the driver side. The base that the slave cylider bolts onto has 3 bolts and if you take those off you'll pretty much get to the same goal.

Are you pulling the brake booster along with the master cylinder? If so, there are two bolts under the dash (12mm I believe). There is also a holding clip you have to remove. Look up under the dash, above the brake pedal for the rod that comes out of the brake booster. The bolts are on each side of the rod.
