- 1980 Cj5, 350 chevy (i built myself), T176, Dana 300, stock narrow trac 3.54 axles, locked in the rear, power steering, power brakes, tilt steering, Warn lockouts, 31x10.50x15 AT's, hi lift jack mounted on the front, bed lined tub, firestick cb setup, 5 in hella lights, NO RUST!!
so im in the middle of doing my sbc conversion. im mating it to a T-4 . i replaced to iron duke 2.5. today we made the motor mounts. im having trouble figuring out the clutch situation. i put on a 153 tooth flywheel. i have a clutch and pressure plate off of a camero my buddy gave me. the problem is when i measure everything out, the fingers that the throwout bearing push on are 1/4' longer than the 2.5 duke clutch. so if i bolt it together it will ride on the bearing all the time and probably have the clutch slightly disengaged. i cant find any info on pressure plate thickness or if some are "thinner". does anyone have any idea what model of car i need to order the clutch for to make it work?
