The gentleman I talked to at Wilcap recommended the McCloud hydraulic throwout instead of the traditional fork & throwout bearing. I didn't ask the price for this upgrade, but had already planned on using one when I started designing my own adapter.

The crank flange end needs to be bored 15/16" diameter for the standard Mopar pilot bushing, and the transmission input shaft should be shortened by 3/8" to prevent bottoming in the pilot/crank flange. A hacksaw and die-grinder job in the driveway.

I'll be using the pressure plate and drive disc (10.5") that I had already bought for the 360ci motor.
