Depends on the year. the Z bar Bracket on an 80 and 81 were bolted to the frame not welded. When I converted my 81 from auto to 4 speed the holes were all ready in the frame. I case they drilled the holes on all the frames regardless.
Interesting point about the hydraulic clutch. I bet it's a lot easier to push in then the stock one.
