904 won't turn?

i probably messed up by bolting the torque converter to the flexplate before putting the transmission on the engine.... I was using my hand then a socket.. then stopped when the socket wasn't working for fear of destroying something.

the engine is fine.. it spins freely just stopped spinning after i line everything up and bolted it together... which i thought was odd cause my 727 would still spin even dry.... everything went on smoothly up till about 1/2 in from the back of the engine... so i'm fairly certain that I have broken something.. but no worries.. i'll double check in the morning.

The small splined shaft would spin freely before the install but the big one wouldn't.. Didn't know if they were both supposed to spin or not...


even if I did break it.. 904's are cheap here.. i'll find one and inspect it...


usually I leave the transmission in the car when i swap engines... lol... learning experience..
