Throw it in there Harold, if the converter snout is smaller than the crank,it will work fine,it's the other way around that bites you in the ass.

Sorry to hear about your bad luck Dan, I know what it feels like! My "Money Pit" is White and it's at Team Z for at least 3 weeks getting some chassis issues fixed. Broken shock mount, bent sway bar, install new relocated upper control arms and scale and set up the chassis, etc. His shops full and the backlog means that my car will have to wait it's turn. Dave Zimmerman really knows how to make these stock suspension cars work, too bad it costs so much $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$! Even if it was done before the bash, I'm going to be broke! Crying or Very sad
