Help, Installing a/t tranny.

[ez1286]

Now I am about to finish putting the engine into the engine bay, but I have run into a problem, kind of. I have a 1g 6bolt a/t awd car. Is it possible to install the transmission onto the car with the torque converter already on the drive plate on the block? if anyone has any idea how please respond, I am in between a rock a and a hardplace with this.

You have to be sure the converter is seated in the transmission. Slide the converter over the input shaft be sure to push & spin it so it is all the way on. Then install the engine and put the converter bolts in. be sure they are tight.

Take the torque converter off the flywheel and slide it to the trans end. U need to make shure it slides in all the way down the splines its the only way to be shure before you bolt the motor to the trans if not you could dammage the converter or trans. I think thats is what your talking about.
