66 BB clutch fork

[David C.]

I believe my clutch fork broke or bent yesterday - won't know for sure until I get the car in the air and check.

I am looking for recommendations on a supplier for a new one. This will be a judged car.

Thanks,

Dave

I've never known of one of these to bend or break, but who knows? In any event, the clutch fork is still available from GM under the original part number, and it's identical to the one originally used on your car. The part number is GM #3887177 and it's about 70 bucks, GM list. I believe this is the part sold by most of the Corvette parts vendors like Dr. Rebuild, Paragon, etc. So, if you have other reproduction parts to order you could probably do it all at the same time.

I bought the part Joe referenced from Paragon. It was a perfect match.

Re: 66 BB clutch fork

Thanks for the advice. I haven't checked anything out yet except the external linkage, which is fine. I have seen broken forks on other vehicles in the past, and I believe my car has a non stock (heavy) clutch which is why I think the fork may have gone south - or the pivot.
