Where do I find a Z-bar/flywheel

    Here's a two fold question. First, where is everyone getting the z bar assembly from, I know that there is bound to be someone out there that didn't use one from a Gm A-body. I would think that a pontiac or Olds would be a close enough match that it should work.

    Second, can I reuse my stock th-350 flywheel when swap up to a super t-10?

    P.S
    Is there anyone on the board yet that has managed to do a converison and used a hydraulic clutch assembly instead of the old cable jobs?

    Thanks in advance

    the pontiac flywheel was a late 70s' off of a trans am, 11" oem as far as i know,it just wouldnt line up with the 430 crankshaft bolt holes ,i purchased a "buick" flywheel off of a board member and it fits fine,i really had thought the pontiac one would fit.. but the bolt pattern while similar was slightly larger

    If you're looking for a Z bar from a 350 I have 3 or 4 of them I found in the local wrecking yards over the years.
