I am already running turnbuckles and heims... that's the only way I've had my car together. Much better than all factory. Everything is tighter and smoother.
I also gusseted and reinforced the Z-bar after breaking the z-bar on the '65 Vette one night and having to drive it home without a working clutch. I wasn't about to reproduce that level of "fun" with my Chevelle. Reinforcement is good.
