Not sure what you are asking for....A-body linkage pivots off the block, short ball stud in the bellhousing, clutch fork is the same as 64-72 Chevelle, 67-81 Camaro, and 68-79? Nova/Chevy 11. If you ordered a clutch and T/O bearing for Chevelle should be all good...only issue might be spline count on the disk.....
I can send pictures later....got to go to work......
Here's a pic , clean parts are what I'm going to use.
I actually using a 10 1/2 hays clutch instead now, switched to the power brute st10, and it is a course input, I had already bought my 11" fine spline clutch kit... More spare parts,,,, it will go with the Muncie.
Well....glad I did a trial fit.. The short one created about a 20' skew in the push off the z bar. Pulled er back out and put in the longer one with the short t/o bearing. All good....
ill post pics pics when I get out of the shop.

THANKS Pascal !!!! I have a 65 manual , real hard to tell dimensions .. I have it figured out now , I think the new headers really threw a wrench into the mix !
ahhh, I owe lunch or a few coffees for bringing the parts along !!! THANKS !!!!

So you ended up using the dirty one out of the Camaro? What is the length from pivot center to push rod center? Was my info (Camaro the same as A body?) correct or was I full of BS?!
longer fork of the 2 in the pic worked out to give 90' linkage line up.
I used a long ball in the block ? not sure if I needed to ? the Z-bar comes pretty close to the block.
I used a new short bearing with the Hays clutch? with the shorter bar, seemed like I could use the taller one? shouldn't have mattered.. as the pivot point to release bearing is the same????
I've had the engine up so I can get the headers in and out 3 times this am... finally have everything clearanced so the Z-bar swings freely......YEEEESH !!!!!!!
I had to walk away friday..very frustrated !
pics later tonight !

The 1965 Pontiac Tempest Shop manual would help you alot too or Pontiac GTO Restoration Guide, I have the one for the 1966 if you are interested I can bring it to Regina with the parts you bought from Carl on the 13th oct ?
so.. after pulling and reassembling the clutch linkage.. I am happier.. BUT ,,, after doing a bunch of reading , It would be ideal to have a longer throwout bearing. I've tried the local parts guys.. nadda..
I have the short one installed now 1 1/4".. and the long one that is 1 7/8" that hits the bearing retainer on the tranny.
I think this is what I need to give me the ideal 5' on the clutchfork... or an adjustable one. Doing this kind of job from midwest Canada is painful.. find everythng you need on the net.. just not local !
