I have a 64 skylark with a 455 auto ( th400) i will be installing a tremec 5 speed.I think i have everything except the dreaded Z-Bar. I was told that a 68 to 70 455 Z-Bar will work or do i need a 64 to 66 Z-Bar? Thanks for any help. Oliver
I found a Z-Bar,Thanks to Bald Menace I though i just needed a Z-Bar which I found for my conversion from auto to 5 speed trans in my 64 Skylark, But i need a upper clutch push rod. The only one i can find is a 64-66 GTO and a 64-66 chevelle upper clutch push rod.The only Skylark upper clutch push rod i found is for a 68-72.Floydsbuick told to get in touch with Mike Garrison or Dave kleiner for help. If you guys read this or anybody else that can help me please reply. Thanks for any help.Oliver
hi oliver, i'm currently putting a tremec 600 in my 455 sportwagon. your next big stumbling block may be the pilot bearing. if you type in pilot bushing you should find my post called pilot bearing wrong or right. my project has been held up 6 weeks but finally got answers on this site. buick guys seem to really want to help each other out. one of dave kleiners friends here in canada really helped me out with the linkage portion of my project. sometimes i think i bit off alittle more than i can chew with this project but i'm past the point of no return. phone me at 250 842 5757 during the day. maybe we can help each other. good luck pete
