Z bar alignment

I'm going through a similar issue. My A body was converted from an auto to a 4 speed. They simply drilled a hole for the frame ballstud and predictably, the sheetmetal is deforming. I just received a FB676 FRAME BALLSTUD BRACKET 1967-76 A-BODY from Brewers. All I have to do now is get it welded on and hopefully my issues will be resolved.
