Putting the engine finally together into the engine bay. I am about to bolt the flex plate to the converter and I forgot that I went with a bigger converter bolt and the flex plate wont fit

I think the engine is coming back out.

Yep... just a couple of weeks ago... the wiper linkage
on my Rampage didnt work and I have a 1 piece alum
firewall... I just put the engine and trans in but
I forgot to fix the linkage before the engine went in
but I ended up cutting the firewall to make a access
port with a cover... its not bad looking but you can
see the screws that hold the cover on... no big deal

I's all a part of the "game" Rob,i feel your pain. I'd drop the trans and change the flexplate.
Hang in there, it will be all worth it in the end when she's complete. You have any other pulleys?I want to drop some boost.Let me know.
