trans and converter install video I hope this answers some questions on install. This was done in our shop Top Dragster with a glide but the spacing and shifter adjustment is all the same whether dragster,camaro,etc.
I also posted this under the other thread.

Excellent video of how to install the torque converter; the need to measure the distance between edge of bell housing and converter pads and especially the amazingly clear video of checking the converter-to-flexplate gap.
However, IMHO spending the first minute on adjusting the band of a Powerglide is going to turn off 99% of potential viewers who then think this video only applies to that rare trans. I would humbly suggest creating another video that starts with you opening the torque converter box.
Also, could you please list the distances you mention in the video from the bell housing to the converter pad for various transmissions.
Thank you.
Ted.
