    Z bar and Pedals

    Pedals are the same, Z bar and associated linkage are different between 6's and 8's. Good luck with it, Farmall

    It seems like there is a growing interest in the 6 cyl. parts as well. I suppose due to the growing interest in Mavericks and restoration and the limited number still available, but the V8 parts still command a significantly higher level of interest and consequently price, in my opinion. I assume it is largely due to supply and demand, as there were far few V8's produced and many less standards than automatics. The bottom line (I think) is there are just not as many of the V8 manual tranny cars as compared to the 6 Cyl. manual cars, so parts are at a premium. But, like I initally stated, it does seem there is a growing demand for the 6 Cyl. parts as well. So good luck with your project.

    250 I6 parts would be more valuable .. since a manual shifted 250 is pretty rare ... 170/200 manual parts are fairly plentiful ...

    i took a 200 z bar and modified it to work in with my 250 then when i put in my 351w i modified it some more to make it work in that apication so you could make anything work. i eventualy want the correct clutch parts for my 351w but what i have works right now.

    Z bar is "clutch equalizer" ?

    I am looking for a clutch equalizer for a 302, 74 Comet.
    Any ideas? Is it the same as a "Z-bar"?
