just a quick follow up on my flywheel alignment issue. I failed to mention that on the transmission side of the flywheel there was a dab of white paint which I was a bit puzzled about and dismissed. Seemed odd until I read the 62 service manual which states that there is a white paint "stripe" on the heavy side of the flywheel that should be aligned with the blue paint "strip" on the torque converter when reassembling the transmission to engine. I must have a flywheel from a later model chevy. Luckly I made note of where it was>
