You mention using the MK Ball bearing clevise, the one Im familiar with is used with the screw horn.

Dan, If your Rev Pro came with fiberglass beams you can use it as is, except change the front lord mounts to the larger size. Mc master Carr carries the one size larger you will need. Also you will need to epoxy the mounting bolts into the beams. If yours has the aluminum beams as mine does, it is much easier. To be safe, I added an additional nose ring to mine vertically as my friend Gary did with his. Gary runs a 140 L and I run the webra 160. No problems. The Hyde mount is not necessary.
 
The stock phenolic horns are fine but use the MK ball bearing clevises. Gary mounted two servos in the tail for elevator control and I went with the Nat Penton method of twin carbon push rods. For those of you that don't know it, this was a Nat idea from about 25 years ago. 
 
For aileron servos, both Gary and I made cut outs in the panels, installed ply mounts and installed the servos as we do any other aileron servo in any other wing: output shaft and servo wheel just above the skin.
 
good luck
