Recently got back from an exhausting 9-day work trip to east Texas (nice weather there this time of year!) so expect my usual Chevelle-work-related spam to resume shortly.
In the interim, have the wonders of “ bolt on” parts. Notice how it doesn’t line up with the hole it ought to by nearly an inch.
I’m sure it fits perfectly... on another car.
This has been returned to Summit this morning
and a different manufacturer’s hydraulic clutch kit purchased. It will take a little fab work to install but overall is higher quality parts and not pretending to be a “bolt on” conversion.

The factory clutch linkage is a z-bar, the pictured bracket piggybacks on the brake MC mounting to provid
e a mount for a hydraulic clutch master.

I’m sure you did, but I have to ask: Did you try flipping the bracket over? It looks like it is meant to go the other way...

You’d think, but then not only does it not fit flush to the firewall (there’s a bend outwards for no good reason other than to make a generic MC line up) but it also passes through the steering column.

Yeah ... That's not close.
