Dorman #690-035.
A pack of 5 is $50 on Amazon, they can deliver in a few days. Or maybe a local store can get one for you.
Original application is for a Chev, 283 I think.

Thanks Walt , but everything I'm getting is way to small . Even the one that came in my clutch kit was to small . The ones they are listing and send are the typical sbc/bbc pilot bushings . Russ Martin has they but i have been able to get ahold of him . The gssizzler man has me covered for now though .

Yep, I know Jon can set you up!
The Dorman one I mentioned is meant to convert a Chev 283 crank from an auto trans to a manual. Russ posted the info years ago (maybe decades by now) on the old Yahoo groups Nailhead list.
