Definitely helps! Furthering the discussion always helps.
I don't plan on having this up and running until next spring/summer at the earliest so I will likely wait for the Holley pan myself.... I like the O-ring style gasket and the cast aluminum over the stamped steel of the Milodon.
Haven't decided on headers yet! I am running the HDK tubular front K member with his mounts + power rack/pinion steering so my header options are up to my preference. I do like the 3" collectors on the TTI's over the A body 2.5" collectors for the Hooker headers...
You know how these threads/builds go, everybody wants to know what fits and what doesn't before they actually try bolting components together. Once we get to that point it usually becomes MUCH clearer what needs to be done and it's usually not a big deal (I'm 100% guilty of this). At this point I'm leaning towards attempting to make the Z bar setup work... If anything just because I have it already to go!
With that said, does anyone have experience on clutch pedal feel on the A833 with hyraulic TO bearing vs traditional? I'm okay with a little stiffer clutch but my wife will want to occasionally drive this as well and it'd be nice if she didn't get a left leg workout while doing so :) Last time I drove an 833 was 15 years ago....
