Anyone local to me capable of correcting errors on a 904 race build

I remember the converter not being with your trans…. crazy that the ball was dropped on that build too.

in case the folks at home were not aware, you could get 904 pump gears with a flat drive. Eliminated the problem prone cracking of the slot style hub on the converter.

I wish I had my junk on the bench because I still can’t comprehend how that converter went in. I’ve never measured the difference between the two though…..

If I could add a little bit to this post, you can also buy 904 pump gears from A&A trans that have oversized drive lugs. These gears also eliminate one of the large chamfers that are normally on both sides of the gear. Eliminating the chamfer provides more surface contact to the converter hub to help eliminate the cracking of the hub.
The A&A gears look similar to the bottom set of gears in the pic above. Notice the lack of a large chamfer.
Years ago when I had Turbo Action build me an 8 inch converter, Paul Forte informed me of a hub upgrade that has a thicker wall thickness to eliminate the breakage in that area. The upgrade requires a machining operation to remove the step ring on the
Stator shaft of the oil pump to make room for the thicker hub on the converter. This thicker hub plus the better pump gears should eliminate breakage in this area.
I will not say that no other converter brand have this thicker hub option, but I have never heard it mentioned by any other brand.
