help? clutch wont disengage

well I know for sure I have the Zbar in correctly. As far as the parts I got the pedals, zbar, pedal to zbar rod, the adjusting rod, and the clutch fork from a 66 3 speed manual. I even tried the pedals, zbar and fork that came with the aluminum bellhousing out of a newer abody and it binds up at about th same spot thats why I figure it has to be the pressure plate or where I set up the pivot on the bell for the zbar. but I made a template from the 3 speed bell housing so it is damn close to where it needs to be. I mean within an 1/8 inch. When I spoke to Wayne at brewers he said that should be close enough to work. i am stymied?!
