It is the first scenario not the latter one......the zbar is too close to the front of the engine by about 1.5" and will not allow any clutch adjustment, it is an easy fix for me but I figured I paid for the correct parts and that is why I am waiting for them. I hope the wait is worth it. I can make another one in about an hour but then I need to wait for the paint to dry.......what a PITA. haaaa
