Yank stall, TCI flexplate
Yank stall, TCI flexplate so i got my yank, and i have my tci flexplate. the flexplate came with a spacer to fit in the crank, i test fit it as best i could and it dosent look like i can use the spacer with the yank stall. so i put it together without the spacer, is this ok?
as long as the pilot is in the crank you will be fine
Yank puts the correct pilot on the converter for the engine /trans combo
make shure the bolts are correct and not to long without the spacer for the crank

the bolts that were sent in the stall were really short. i ended up having to get some diffrent bolts, but then i had to make sure that they werent too long.
may i ask yank why they make them blind holes, rather than tap all the way through? is it for strength? becuase it would be cheaper just to make the threads go through rather than blind holes, just wondering..

which bolts did you guys use???
i'm also going with a yank verter with a TCI flexplate, i have ARP converter bolts, but they are short.... i don't know yet if they are too short or not.

the arp's are too short. just go to the local hardware store and pic up some (GRADE 8) 12mm x 1.5 x 20mm hex head bolts for like $1 each. they work perfect. they measure 20mm (3/4 in) thread length. the head is not included in the advertised length

i called two ace's in my area - they didn't have them, also called home depot... they didn't have them. i think i'm going to use either ARP flywheel bolts, or pressure plate bolts. the flywheel bolts are about 3/4 of an inch long thread... the pressure plate bolts are an inch...
i'd like to have as much thread in the converter as possible - with the TCI flexplate and a Yank converter - is an inch long thread too much???
