I6 zbar in a V8??
I am wanting to know if my manual trans z bar and linkage from my 292 will fit on the 327 I'm going to install or do I need to get a v8 set up. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Re: I6 zbar in a V8??
...the 6 cylinder z-bar is to wide and the clutch rod is different to...you can do some fabbing to make them work with some cutting and welding if you can't find any...

Welding and cutting I can do. Just wanted to know up front what I need to make the swap go smoothly. Thank you.

Re: I6 zbar in a V8??
this may help if you have the right holes in the block-look for my replies to this thread
http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=500246 if your block doesn't have the holes,mooneyes bracket above looks easy enough to make. good luck

Re: I6 zbar in a V8??
Cool thanks guys. I'll have to look at the side of my block and see if the holes are there.
