Re: Locked up?

[Jason Rhoades <Jason@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Well .....  Hmmmmm......, nope same process! Remove tranny thus exposing some of the converter
If you've been living right he may be able to slip the wrench in between block and converter. But they still used a flex plate of sorts had bolts and nuts instead of a threaded crank flange     Or.  Put motor on its top remove oil pan and main caps and start removing rod caps and be patient  or just call me and I'll sell you a 361 that will turn over  heck I'd sell the 28 ,000 mile motor in my 62 if someone wanted it. I have a 413 to put back in it and I need an excuse to pull the 361.  But it runs soooooooooo smooth I can't bring myself to do the deed. 

Wait what did I say ??? Must have been a stupid bug that bit me. Keep the 361 what was I thinking( or smoking) I don't smoke o well

So that means the transmission is a cast iron TorqueFlite. I seem to recall that year cast iron TorqueFlites did not use a flex plate but bolted directly to the crankshaft. in other words, there was an extended flange on the crankshaft with a torque converter with studs that bolt directly to the crankshaft, (no flex plate). Does that change things on how to proceed with the motor locked up?
