Quote: Yes, second time this has happend, but the first time, we changed converters and dont know if the thrust problem was there at that time.
The converter turns freely when not bolted to the flex plate.
The block does have aftermarket billet caps.
Should have about 3/8" movement fore and aft on the converter(not bolted up)... if not it cant grow with the heat and torque which can cause ballooning in the conv to allow it to move rearward
