1969 cuda 383 Z-bar VS. 340 ?

[stroker402]

question .........
have a 69 cuda 383 4 sp. .... Is the Z-bar the same as a 340 4sp.. 69 cuda.
The Z-bar is rubbing resting on the starter and when pushing down on the clutch it rocks the engine over to the pass side.

I know the busings are junk but this seems extreme may have the wrong Z-bar. someone has" jerry rigged " something there.

Thanks for any info !

I know that 67 & 68 383 cars had a Z-bar for themselves. I would imagine that it would be the same for a 69.

Small block has a different Z bar than big block. On the big block one of the legs on the Z bar has a pretty good offset to it. Look at the brewers performance website, they have pictures of both.
