'80 Z-bar mounting bracket dimensions/pic?
I had to take the clutch z-bar and mounting bracket off my '80 to install full length headers (to replace the block huggers that melted my engine mounts). I learned that one of the previous owners did a major kluge on the mounting bracket with a welder and hack saw.
I can't find one to buy, so I plan to repair the mounting bracket as best I can. The bracket is so badly cut or worn that I can't tell what the dimensions were supposed to be in the first place.
Does anybody have a picture of the mounting bracket without the z-bar mounted?
If not, can someone please provide a measurement between the z-bar and frame or ??? that I can use to determine where the stud should fit on the bracket?
Thanks.

Not to **** you off, but Isnt the frame bracket bolt on for later years
(80-81), I read where the PO welded it on, what happened to the hole where it should have been bolted to. Doc rebuild sells the bracket,part # 3851217,,,20 bux. I bought one from them a while back. Peace,,,Moosie
