As long as there is no air gap between the converter drive lugs and the flexplate with the converter pulled all the way forward, there should be no problem. Even if the converter snout was bottomed in the crank at the same time the drive lugs contact the flexplate, it wouldn't be a problem.


Same if the converter hub was only a few thou from bottoming out in the crank, the flexing of the flexplate could cause contact witness marks on the converter snout.
