" The thing that bothered me the most was I have a 67 Rogue with a 290 V8

they're ****ed up.    there was no 196 after '65 for a start...

the exact model and even year shouldn't matter; the kit for any v8
with t-10 would be the same, with one proviso: the retainer collar on
the tranny and the throwout bearing that rides on it differs from
early to late and i'm not sure of the cutoff year.  '71 maybe?  bad
news: the early one is the rarer.

bearing aside, the disk and pp are jellybean parts.  even gm [1.125" x
10 spline] should fit!
