This is the kit I used for mine.

the hard part is getting the correct disc. all the SBCs and L6s spin the opposite direction of a V6 305, so you'll need to use a different disc. I just reused the 11" one I had and it's all working fine.
???? Please explain how the clutch disc for SBC's and L6's "spin" in the opposite direction when all automotive/industrial engines "spin" in a clockwise direction when viewed from the front of the engine. To say that the clutch discs for SBC and L6 engines "spin" opposite of the GMC V-6 suggests that those engines rotate in a counter clockwise direction. There is another reason why SBC and L6 clutch discs will not work with the GMC V-6.
