Been a while since this threads been updated. Today’s activities involved math and numbers that I likely won’t remember.. documentation time in the build thread.
The aftermarket torque converter and flex plate required spacers to set the correct gaps.
Factory parts are so much simpler to work with. Anyway… with the converter seated the gap between it and the flex plate measures out at .694 of an inch minus the .368 depth of the mount… for a total of .326.
Desired gap is 1/8 to 3/16 or .125. to .1875.
I have .150 and .25 spacers… so if I use the .150 I end up with .176 gap and that should work out pretty well.
Now why am I documenting this trivial event… b/c I had it all bolted up.. couldn’t find my previous numbers, doubted myself and then had to redo everything again.
