Work continues on my '63 V8 Lark, and I am still having a problem getting the clutch to disengage, as I do not have enough travel in the linkage, even though I have adjusted it out as far as it goes.[?]
One possiblility which has been suggested is that the "ears" on the shaft which holds the throwout bearing inside the bellhousing have rotated. Does anyone have one around they can take a picture of, or discribe concerning how the ears are orientated to the hole in the rod the pin for the sleeve goes through? I know my question might not make a whole lot of sense, so I apologize - I am trying to determine how the hole in the end of the shaft for the sleeve which connects it to the clutch rod lines up with the ears on the rod which is inside the bellhousing. Basically, I want to know how to tell if the ears have in fact rotated!
Oh, this is for a '63 V8 Lark, which I have installed a heavy duty 10.5" clutch, in place of the 10" it had.
Once again, I thank everyone for their advice!
