[QUOTE="redfr03svtsnake, post: 11365939, member: 45214"] So i looked into the situation today, once again and found out that it is not the lenght of the input shaft that is the issue. The depth of the converter is fine- the neck of the converter is about 1/3" roughly longer than the stock converter- measured from the bolting flat surface of the converter to the neck... I Cannot figure out why the converter is causing this issue, since the stocker works beautifully. PI tells me that you need 1.035" between the face of the bell housing, to bolting surface of the converter- i have something like 5/8" with the PI the way it sits, and as installed it smashes against the flexplate, not allowing it to be spun or bolted...... So here are some things we are contemplating- a- Get another converter b- Trim the neck of the converter about 3/8" to allow it move in a little (detrement to this being that it may place the converter too deep on the splined shafts etc?) c- Shim the trans out a bit more to allow it to move away from the flexplate.... (easiest most practical solution) Anyone ever experienced this, and what would you recommend or suggest to any of my options..... Please refrain from being cynical [/QUOTE]
