you can believe what you want
there is nothing pushing forward on a flywheel untill you push the clutch in
the converter laying flat against the flex plate is a bad situation
to the other guy above the thrust bearing is not the same as any other bearing
all other bearings are pressure feed the thrust bearing is not .. yes the oil from that main has to drain across it but once you put forward pressure on the crank so the crank surface is now flush against the rear side of the thrust it has then opened all the thrust clearence to the front side only so do you think the oil will drain out the side with the gap or the side being pressed flat together ??
