Default Known, good part numbers for clutch rebuild kits for the 1500 series...

Greetings!

I am having the worst two weeks of my life trying to get someone to find the 11" clutch rebuild kit for my truck.

Does anyone have a known, good part number and manufacturer for the following rig?

1966 GMC 3/4T pickup
Two-wheel drive
1500 series VIN #
305 E V-6 enging
New Process SM-420 tranny

The LUK kit, and a kit from O'Reilly's Auto Parts in southern california, both feature a clutch disc that has major projections on both sides.

The former rebuild kit, as well the one before that, as well as the one before that, all feature a clutch disk that is nearly flat on one side, with very smail springs and a projecting splined hub on the opposite side.

I used to be able to order the correct kit. now everyone wants to sell me either a 12" disc and pressure plate, or a 10 and 15/16ths kit that comes with a clutch disk that I cannot bolt up, because BOTH sides impact the flywheel.

I'm losing my mind. Please, if you have any actual part numbers, let me know! All the parts houses I've been going to for the past thirty years or more have been unable to help!

Thanks!
