Hello. Have you had time lately? Im going to start the swap this weekend.

My apologies for the delay. I have had one of my colleagues out sick for the last two weeks in a business with only three employees, so we're down 33% of our workforce. I have been doing about 90-110 hours a week on the clock to try to cover for him, working 7 days a week. Not fun.

BUT I finally had time on Friday to get into the shed where my spare engines are stored!

Took a photo of the back side of an engine that came out of an automatic car, link here. Confirming that there is NO spacer between the crankshaft flange and the flexplate (drive plate). There is the "washer" ring that is used between the bolts and the flexplate, with its dimple facing outwards (towards transmission).

Hope this helps and again sorry I didn't have a chance to get this for you sooner, eating and sleeping have been enough of a challenge here this month.

Let us know how this goes and anything else we can help with!

Sounds stressful...but im sure the paycheck will sit nice
I found out that the mating surface of the torque converter and the mating surface of the block and trans shuold be 18mm. I measured at 17,2 which is within spec so yes no spacers.
Baked Beans Garage on YouTube has a video of a full rebuild where he showed this.

No worries, if i had known about your situation i wouldnt have asked. After those kinda hours the only thing on your mind is sleep. Thank you though.
