I finally got around to finish cleaning and resealing the 727 tf on my coronet. I bent the flexplate in the process of rebuilding the engine so I purchased a new one along with a torque converter. I installed it earlier today and it all went ok, mainly because I use a proper transmission jack. Right as I was putting my tools away I crept under the car to spin the torque converter and noticed it would rub the bell housing every now and then along the bottom. I followed the service manual when inserting the tc into the transmission and had the 1/2” gap from face off bell housing to tc lugs where the bolts go. From flexplate to torque converter I have a little under 1/4” gap, which means the tc will pull forward to mate with the flexplate. I
Have not bolted the tc to flexplate yet. When I do will that possibly eliminate the slight rubbing of tc along bottom of bell housing?
