Robert, Yep, that's exactly what I meant to say. Bentley says something about a one way clutch it sits on so that got me wondering if I should only be able to spin it one way before the flex plate is bolted to it. I also wasn't sure if the flex plate would touch the TC after bolting the on the bell housing, but it doesn't. Stephen DeMocko ('85 Westy Luci)

Huh? Could you clarify that, please? Do you mean to say after the bellhousing is bolted up but before the TC is bolted to the flex plate? Txs, Robert |
