i have problems again clutch linkage question
 

i have v8 in my truck sbc and the bell crank also called z bar cracked (:smoke:for those that don't know like me im talkin about bracket that bolts from frame to engine for clutch linkage) i have access to one off a straight 6 truck will it work

Re: i have problems again clutch linkage question
 

It should. Only difference is in the brackets, z bars should all be the same.

Re: i have problems again clutch linkage question
 

they are the same

Six cylinder Z bars are longer between the frame and block pivot ball than small block ones by about 1/2 an inch.

I am doing a 6 cyl to 350 swap and am looking at a hydraulic clutch conversion.

And it would be suuper easy to cut that excess length off with a hacksaw.

[quote=Tom Vogel;6237563]Yes. When I convert from six to eight that's what I've always done.
