If you cannot get a 7109 bearing for the crank, you can use bearing retainer (green) loctite and put in a 6202 bearing. I just did this and it works fine. Forget a Z-bar, go with a hydraulic conversion from American Powertrain or Modern Driveline - I personally have the modern driveline system in mine and it's beautiful to drive. If you go with a Muncie, get Paul Cangialosi from Super661 to build you a Hurst shifter for it. I just did a clutch & linkage rebuild on my Muncie and it seriously drives and shifts like a single rail gearbox. It's so smooth and effortless to drive now. Ohyeah, Redline MTL oil is what I put into the box and it all works for me.
