Default Clutch cross-shaft interchangability?

Just curious if the cross shaft is the same part/design for all C2/C3 applications.

Thanks,
Mike

Hi Mike,
I believe the same cross shaft was used from 68-81; I'm not sure about earlier cars.
Regards,
Alan

I think there are three different cross shafts, mid year small block, 65-66 big block and 67+up although the 65-66 BB and the 67 and up are pretty close. the mid yr SB also takes longer push rods. the difference is the "clocking" of the arms.
