Ask me about my head light upgrade harness!!!
I'm putting a T-176 behind a 360 and I'm having issues finding the proper clutch kit. I found one the has the proper .59 pilot bearing but it has the throw out bearing as being square. The other kits that have the round throw out hearings have pilot bearings that are .75".. Is the standard throw out bearing for a T-176 the square one? The Transmission came disassembled so I have nothing as a reference.
 
When I purchased the clutch parts for my T-18 conversion, they were purchased separate since the proper spline count on the disk did not come with the kit. Could you send a link for a square throwout bearing? I gotta see that.
 
Thanks LG.. That's what the throw out bearing in the kit looks like.
 
I used the throw out bearing that came in the kit but had to buy a separate pilot bearing.
 

Mine is like LGs as well. Is the same for the T-176 , T177, T-4 and T-5 that used the same bellhousing.

Forgot to mention that the separate pilot bearing was to fit my old AMC 258 i6 / 4.2l which I'm not sure is the same as the 360. The kits I tried out were all for a AMC 258 i6 / 4.2l & T-176 /T177 combo but none of them had the right pilot bearing size. Appeared to be a common issue across the forums. Believe the only bearing/bushing I found to fit the AMC 258 i6 / 4.2l was a National Needle Bearing FC-66426.
