Default 70 gto z bar question

Pic of the bottom of my z bar,,not sure the official name. The top part hole just takes a pin and a cotter pin. Bottom part you see is a nut and bolt. Is that nut and bolt factory issue? Had ram air manifolds and everything cleared,put on some different ram air manifolds and now the nut runs into the back of the manifold and I've still need about 3/4" more to get my adjustable clutch rod in there.

Default 70 gto z bar question

Mine has the two clevis pins, but I don’t see where using a bolt would change much besides the challenge of getting a wrench on it.

Weird about the exhaust manifold, but maybe the new manifold is ‘67 and earlier?

I replaced the non original bolt with a correct clevis pin. Now it clears. Never knew that bolt wasn't original. Thanks.
