Scat Crank Repair

Mad Dart said

We talked about this in one of your other threads and I was asking if the converter was anti ballooning. I guess it don't matter if the snout is too damn long. You must have had a pretty big gap from the Flex Plate to the converter bolting it up. More than a 1/4" gap that it is supposed to have. But again .075" is really not that much but just enough to take out your Thrust..... Dang

I typed that clearance wrong it was .37'' taller than stock but anyway the snout is bottoming out inside the crank pilot hole. When I double checked my all my clearances the converter pads was .40'' away from the flex plate. I took the crank out of the motor and bolted the flex plate up turned the converter up and set the crank on the snout and leveled it. Even though I had plenty of clearance for the converter to slide backwards in to the transmission pump there was no flex forward because the converter was already pushing the crank forward does this make sense!
