Opinions Wanted - What clutch parts to buy and can I do it?

Thanks, I tried to find one in the past and came up dry also. I was hoping someone was making one that fit right in. If I was to machine the crank, I'd make the convertor snout hole bigger and use the factory Magnum pilot bearing. That way I will also have the option of using a later automatic behind the same engine.

That is the smart way to go, and explains something................

I'll bet the one in my old 223 six is made so there was a similar choice.

The oil-light bushing for my six is big, like, (just throwing numbers out there)............

Like .700 I.D. and 1.875 O.D.

And there were cast iron automatics available for those year sixes.
