How to install a torque converter onto the transmission

[BillBoost37]

First off, begin by filling a new/dry converter with 1-2 quarts of trans fluid. Give it a little time to seep into the converter. Sometimes spinning the converter on it's nose nubby will help.

I'd suggest doing it on the floor, so you don't have to fight slippery milkcrates.

oh man, when i did my first build I was a noob.

I just took the flexplate, bolted it to the crank, bolted on a dry converter and then "mated" the trans to motor and away i went...

lol


held up fine..
