You can space it with grade 8 washers, or have a machine shop cut you the spacers you need at the exact length. Its just a spacer and the bolts do the clamping. I would call another converter company. $70 is crazy affraid

cqan is .375 but slide the converter all the way in the pump and measure from flexplate to converter use a drill bit its easy to use to measure use the end that goes in the chuck then subtract .125 to .150 then use a washer stack up with grade 8 bolts
