Still trying to locate an input shaft bushing puller. RustyCowll69 offered to clean out his garage to find one, but I hate to be the cause for anyone to do that! I have an inquiry out to see if this will fit the project;

I'd never heard of ensuring the input shaft is square to the crank. I lead a sheltered life :)... Mine measures out of true by .007". The offset pins are on the order list. THANKS!!
I got a preliminary look at the Z bar on this auto to 4 spd conversion. The arm on the throw out linkage side is bent outward by 1/4" (pic) I'm curious as to the proper process to heat and bend the arm straight without weakening the arm. Can I do this with propane?

The possibility of shimming the Z bar over towards the center of the car was also mentioned. It doesn't look like I have a lot of free room where the clutch rod goes through the firewall (pic again).

If anyone has a '64 /6 Z bar laying around, I'd love to hear how yours compares.
:thankyou:
