Two months ago I bought 2 9 1/2 n/l torque convertors, one for my brother and the other one for myself. I am going crazy, I can't get the torque to go into the tranny. After 2 hours of trying I decided to put back the 12 inch red stripe convertor in and it went all the way in on the first try. I figured something is wrong with my ptc. I called my brother the next day and asked him to bring his ptc torque so we could try his. After 1/2 hour of trying we got his to go in. So I got my hopes up and said if his went in my should aswell. After another 2 1/2 hours of trying, my brother and I never got the torque to go in the tranny. I can't see any diffferences between mine and my brother's from the outside, except for the fact that the splines inside my torque spin alot more freely then his. Is that normal? Has anyone with a PTC run in the same headache and problems as me?
