Proper adjustment of a hydraulic TO is essential. .100-.125" air gap to the diaphram when TO is completely compressed. Also, if your clutch master is not sized correctly, you will either not fully disengage the clutch (too small a bore), or you will need to make a pedal stop (too large a bore) so you don't keep pushing the diaphram after it runs out of travel. Keep the O-rings that came in the box, you will need to rebuild the TO in a year or so. At stoplights, put tranny in neutral and let clutch out, that will make it live longer.
