I noticed that with the TCI adapter TCI sent spacers to go between the flex plate and the converter in order to get sufficient front pump engagement. This pulls the converter out of the pilot bushing in the crankshaft adapter. With the spacers installed the button on the front of the converter just barely engages into the crank adapter. I recently "special" ordered a new converter with 3/16" longer converter button and 3/16" taller converter bolt mounting blocks so that I could remove the spacers. This way you get good solid front pump engagement and good crank shaft pilot engagement!!
What other special features did you have them do to your converter while they were at it, Treblig? Higher stall? heavy duty lock-up clutches? anti-ballooning plates?
