Title: WTB 4 speed engine block pivot stud (455 sized stud)
Post by: Robert V on April 29, 2018, 03:24:47 PM

Hello,
I'm looking for this block side pivot ball for my z bar. I have only been able to locate smaller replacements.
The one that I need is about .998 diameter.

Thanks,
Robert

No idea if this will work, but looks like a possibility.  You might email The Parts Place and ask for dimensions on MT3704Z:  https://www.thepartsplaceinc.com/PopUp/PopUp.aspx?imageID=MT3704Z.jpg (https://www.thepartsplaceinc.com/PopUp/PopUp.aspx?imageID=MT3704Z.jpg)

I bought one just like that, however the ball is not fitting my zbar tight enough.
I 'm pretty sure I need from 455 BBB.
Thanks

Try a Pontiac supplier. When I did my 66 Special conversion, they had the larger dia parts, Chev was smaller.
You can also look up the part numbers in the parts book located here on the site. Then do a Google or eBay search on the number.
