WOW! That was fast, thanks man. Any idea on the flexplate?

55 Ft. Lbs. Took a while to find that one

[smokedout]

Thanks a bunch. I looked all over trying to find it and had no luck. I figured i could get some help here. This is an awesome forum.

Well now I am finding 30 ft lbs for convertor housing to engine23 ft lbs for torque converter to flex plateI would use these as the 55ft lbs was from ATS.

[smokedout]

oh ok, ha ha ha. will do.

Yeah it is really sparse info out on the net about 1st gen flex plates. That one should be right though as they specifically said it was for a 1st gen flex plate. Other one was for aftermarket ATS stuff. Sorry about the screwup :banghead:

[smokedout]

oh thats all right. What i'm doing is putting an allison from a 2nd gen engine on a 1st gen engine. Do you think the torque specs for the dodge adapter and torque converter will work?

[ISX]

Not sure on that one. I take it you found that allison out of something other than a dodge The specs might work but I am really not sure about that. Might have to wait a few hours for the ones who will know to wake up..

Yeah i'm repowering a Frieghtliner roll back tow truck with a little older engine i had. Sorry i should of mentioned that in the beginning. Thanks for your help. If i cant find any other info on the allison i'll just use the specs you gave me. I think it will work.
