Along with my rearend swap i will be installing a lakewood scattershield. To protect myself of any flywheel/clutch issues. I would like to know if the scattershield from lakewood part #15200 needs any modification for my car it is a 65 and i have long tubes with the mech linkage for the clutch. Or if my car needs any modification to make this work. has anyone ever had any issues with their fitment? Thanks

I have a lakewood housing on my 302 bracket engine along with hooker long tube headers and the stock clutch linkage, fits like a glove. don't forget to align it with the crank centerline.

Mine was as simple as bolt it in, and go, everthing cleared, and when I put an indicator on it, it had .002 runout, which is just fine. Mine is a 70, but I'd think your would fit with ease.------------------

On my 65, I had to cut a notch in for the clutch linkage to clear the bell housing, BUT, I have the 351W (bored & Stroked to 408). Other than that mine fit well, not a lot of clearance for the headers but they clear it.The alignment was a real bear to get right, but finally got it right. ------------------

Did you only need the offset dowels to get it aligned?
