I got my engine back into the chassis and mated up with the transmission. But now it looks like the torque converter isn't in the correct position - I simply cannot seem to get the flex plate hole to line up with the TC attachment boss.

Is there any way to rotate the torque converter so one of the mounting holes is lined up on the access window? Given what it took to get tghe engine in I REALLY do not want to have to pull it again.

You should be able to stick a finger through a hole in the flex plate to turn the TC, thats what i had to do.
