| matts85vet | align auto trans with block? | ||

block is back from rebuilders and back in the car. i have the 700r4 bolted up to the block with the 6 bolts and the 3 flexplate bolts connected to the crankshaft. i noticed that the trans is slightly to the passenger side by about 1/32"
it's on the dowel pins. didn't notice how it was before i removed the engine. my question is does it matter if the outside shell of the trans is a little off as along as everything bolts up ok and it's on the dowel pins? or do i need offset dowel pins, or is that only needed for manual transmissions. thanks in advance! |

could there be debris in the hole or on the pin? seems odd to me, but it could also be age or a warping of the trans case...

Personally, I would bet on a bet trans case ahead of a bent block face... cast iron vs aluminum?

When it's on the pins is the shaft on the trans aligned with the crank?
Take some measurements with the trans off. |

thanks for the replies! i think i will unbolt everything and try again. is it possible to install the transmission dowel pins wrong? maybe they are bent? i just tapped them in w/a small hammer into the block. maybe they are not out far enough
