I have mine in the lower position now. After 43 years of continuous operation and 3 different 292s, I can't be sure how the original was rigged. You have to work with what works. I tried it in the upper position and I think I had clearance issues, but then I have Clifford Reserch headers on my 292 L6, and a custom heim-joint upper clutch rod. At one point I had the machinist heat and bend a joggle in the arms of the Z-bar for clearances around headers.
