Kev,

That will work for any small block or big block Chevy to a T56 Magnum. Two caveats:
1) It has to be a T-56 Magnum, not a production T-56.
2) You have to convert to a hydraulic throw-out bearing.

If you want to keep the manual clutch linkage, then you need the 6023PB. You will also need a throwout bearing collar for the mechanical throwout bearing to ride on. I did the mechanical setup behind my 496 big block with no issues.

Same one I used in my install.

What clutch are you using. I started with a single disc setup and ending up using a RST-Dual disc to get a proper light pedal feel ?
