as for the torqe converter when you put it on the shaft & spin clockwise there should be 3 seperate clicks or "drops-in" 3 times did you do that?

if you didnt & your trying to force it your f'n stuff up & youll blow your trans or crank bearings or both.

if your not sure drop the trans & do it again youtube/google "installing a torque converter" for your specific trans youll see exactly how to

lastly i know im long winded are you sure the motor runs?
was kinda in a rush to get it done, didnt even spin the verter just pushed it on and it felt like it went far enough. im in the process of dropping the trans, the only things thats holding it is in the bell housing bolt, everything else is outa the way(DS,crossmember,TQ arm, ect)

and yes, the motor runs like a champ. its a 70k miles LS1
