Well the clutch assembly is together and I have no adjustments at the firewall rod..where it conncects to the cross shaft... Do I have the wrong throwout bearing, the rod is adjusted out to the end.

Re: C2 - 1964 - Clutch adjustments
You might have the wrong throw out bearing. I bought a 66 L79 that had a homemade clutch rod and I thought nothing of it until I tried to put the right one in...no fit. There are apparently 2 T.O. bearings that will fit, but only one works. Changed mine when the tranny came out for other reasons. Sorry I do not have part numbers, but I'm sure some one else will have them.

Do you have the right clutch push rod? If you have done any replacements here, the 327 and 350 ci push rods are different.

Re: C2 - 1964 - Clutch adjustments
Corvettes use the 1-1/4" long throwout bearing (not the 1-3/4" bearing used on passenger cars); however, if you had the incorrect "long" bearing, it would give you MORE available adjustment at the pedal pushrod-to-cross shaft attachment, not less. Are you sure you have the correct bent-finger diaphragm clutch, 1-1/4" throwout bearing, clutch fork, cross shaft, and upper and lower pushrods? This system works very well, with plenty of available adjustment, if all the parts are properly matched.Comment
