  What do you need ..... I'll take it apart or send you the hole thing ... but taking it apart might be easyer to send ...
Harrold ... I can take a picture of it and send it to you  email ... you might be able to tell if the dang thing will fit or not ...

Marcel, excellent idea. Send a pic. Only want the clutch. No need for the compressor.

Auto Zone, Discount Auto and a "regular" parts store, where da gal don't know nuttin : :.

 

I know how you feel.  The other day my regular parts store was out of the gear oil I wanted, sooo.  I went to Auto Zone and asked for a 5 gallon bucket of 85W140.  The young man said he didn't know, but he thought they had some kind of oil in a bucket, didn't think it was 5 gallons though.  Well we went and looked and what do you know a whole stack of 5 gallon buckets full of 85W140.  I'm not a negative person by nature, just a dry sense of humor sometimes. :  But you know all I could think was, how do you get a job in a parts store and not even know what a 5 gallon bucket looks like? ;D

You think thats bad, try this one. Several years ago the block on my pickup cracked, and after many years of running around patched with JB weld I decided it was time to replace the block with a short block.Went to Autozone, they had the best price( I know, you get what you pay for) and ordered the block. I explained that I would not be trading in the old block at the time, I had to haul the new one home with the truck, and would swap it out and then return the old block, even though I told them the old block was cracked.
They called 3 days later, told me that the block was in. Stopped after work, and asked the little guy behind the counter for my block, showed him the receipt. He said alright, and went to look on the shelf were incoming parts are kept. I couldnt figure out what he was looking for on a shelf, surely not a block. He finally asked someone, they said its around back on the dock.
I go around back, and there is a crate with my name on it. I wait for 15 minutes and then walk around the front. Talk to the same litle guy. "Hey, can I get someone with a forklift or something?" He looked puzzled and asked what I need a forklift for. I said "The block that I bought, I cant just pick it up and throw it in the back by myself" He said, okay, Ill help you. Led me through the store out back. Looked around and asked me, "what did you do with it?"
With what?
the block
You are leaning against it dummy.
oh,,,,,,,,,long pause,,,,,,,,,
I guess we need some more people,,,,,,,,
Needless to say he got the manager who came out with the portable engine lift and the block was lowered into the pickup bed and I left shaking my head.
Needed a block, got a blockhead instead :D
