The engine turned before I connected it to the tranny, now I can't get it to turn and I don't want to snap off the bolt that goes into the crank. Any suggestions?

The engine and trans must line up so that if automatic the shaft of torque converter must line up such that the bell housing can touch the engine and may just look like it is a little off and when tightened it all jams up. Arggh! Not sure what damage might happen but suspect some if that happened. There's also a pilot bushing for standards that must be removed for automatics. I'm not so familiar with the trucks but know there were some subtle differences whether the engine was for a truck or a car. Also: Starter motor is OK? If that is all jammed in perhaps that's a problem, T ericrulke New User Sep 2, 2007, 8:42 AM Post #3 of 3 (2037 views) Re: 350 engine Sign In Thanks I'll try loosening up everything and see if that helps   Automotive Repair     Auto Body Repair and Refinishing     Heating or AC Issues     Electrical and Wiring     Brake Systems     Car Stereo Repair Advice     General Discussions     Car Making Funny Noises     Engine Fault Codes     Engine Troubles     Exhaust Systems     Steering and Suspension     Transmission Troubles     Tricks of the Trade Automotive World     General Discussions     Antique Car Talk     Car Shows and Events     The Bargin Bin     Motor Vehicle Inspection     Car Care Tips     Traffic Tickets     Gasoline, Motor Oils, Concept Cars and Engines     Auto Insurance, Financing, Leases, Warranties Truck Repair     General Discussions     Truck Engine Repair     Truck Suspension Repair Motorcycle Repair     General Discussions     Motorcycle Engine Repair CarJunky     Open Posting     Board FAQ's     New Board Suggestions
