My pitman arm showed up today. Thank you very much Steve. You saved my ass and did it out of your own pocket. Much appreciated!

Rick, Great thread. This has been a topic unresolved over at NastyZ for some time. Could you provide the hole-to-hole center dimension and tapered splined hole diameter? I'm also converting back to manual on my '70 z. Have the box and was going to try using a 881 casting off a p/s, but not now. So the hunt is on. Thanks, Scott

Using a tape measure for the center to center it looks to be 6 15/16". Using a caliper the splined end measures 1.033 on the small opening and 1.077 on the big opening.
