In fact, I have less than a hundred miles on the car since the rebuild. The noise from the gearbox has always been there, but I've been trying to sort out other issues. I'm positive the linkage parts are all correct as per a good discussion with Wayne at Brewer's about the necessary conversion parts. None of it looks to be out of whack. The Z-bar is new and doesn't flex at all when I stare at it from underneath and have a buddy push the clutch pedal.
It seems like pedal should just throw the fork a little further and it would work. I spent some time adjusting the fork pivot (also confirmed correct) and it didn't make any difference.
