Well i have come across another problem trying to get my engine and transmission together. Originally i couldnt get the two mated together because my convertor wasnt all the way back, but i pushed and wiggled on it some more, and it is now where it should be. I can get the engine and bellhousing, and the convertor and flexplate bolted together, but when i start to torque down the convertor nuts to spec.(25 ftlbs) the weight on the flexplate rubs against the engine/block plate, so much you cant turn the engine over by hand. The flexplate is actually deflecting as you turn the engine over, i know this because i had someone turn the engine over by hand, and i placed my finger on the flexplate while it was being turned and it went from being on my finger to 1/2'' gap between the two and back to my finger again. Does that make any sense?
Any ideas as to what is causing this? All suggestions are welcome
Thanks
