Default Pwerglide to LQ4

OK, which flexplate is needed to install a powerglide to my LQ4? The crank is a short crank by the way. There was a spacer attached to the existing flexplate. I sold the flexplate with the trany since the converter bolts would not line up. I need the smaller pattern.

Thanks for the info.

You need a "dished" flexplate like this one FP319 and remove the crank spacer.

Feel free to call us if you have any more questions!

The ad isn't wrong, it's a one piece billet hardened steel SFI approved flexplate, truly a solid piece.
