I just tried for another twenty minutes, no luck. I won`t have time this weekend to work on the car with work and the kids, its going to go to monday night. I will try Nick Micale`s tricks, and might go see JB or Snowbird(Bob) to see if they have a spare input shaft that I could try on my torque just to make sure the convertor is ok. I don`t think anything is wrong with my tranny because my 12 inch goes in perfect, and my brother`s PTC went in also after a while. The only difference that I could see between my brother`s convertor and mine is that mine is a lot more free. Spins very easily and moves up and down very easily compared to my brother`s PTC torque.
Thanks for all the help and suggestions everyone.
