Hello fellow Maverick and Comet people I am new to the forum and was wanted to know if anyone could help me. I am putting together a 1974 Ford Maverick 2 door with a 302 V8 and T-10 4 speed. I have managed to get most of it together through junkyards, online stores and ebay. But I have had a hard time finding the v8 Clutch equalizer - z bar. I haven't been able to find anything, even a remanufactured one. If anyone has one for sale or knows of a remanufactured one online. It would be greatly appreciated! Thanks - Mike
Craig Selvey, the Indiana chapter president of the Maverick/Comet Club International, should be able to help you out as he parts out Mavericks and Comets. Craig@MaverickCorral.com Bruce
Thank you Bruce! When I started this project I didn't think it was going to be this hard to find parts and trying to rig things together to work. Mike
It's worth a shot. If he doesn't have one, search here for hydraulic or cable conversions. Good luck! Bruce
... since 4/5 of the Mavericks were SIX cylinder cars, a Z-Bar from a 250 six cylinder car may be sourceable' and should fit as the 250 has same FW, BH etc as SBF . . while building an early Comet with a 250 , I used a '71 170 cid six Maverick Z-Bar and cut it shorter to fit the SBF sized 250 block pivot ball. . . . . have fun
Awesome! I sourced my current one from a former member from Kentucky. A totally new fabrication. Bruce
Not really. Just have to use the smaller diameter Mustang pivot balls on the block and frame. IIRC I think they are the same size as Maverick 6 cylinder pivot balls.
Hey fellas, I found this 1965 mustang z bar kit. Do you believe I can use it? Or does it have specifically from a 1966? https://www.ebay.com/itm/2353016326...-ab6c-a24c8174ffb2|iid:1|vlpname:vlp_homepage
It'll probably work. I only used '66 parts because that's what my friend had laying around his garage when we installed the V8.
