Guys,

Putting the engine and tranny back together and noticed I have ~3/16 gap between the flywheel and converter without the two bolted up. I took the flywheel fom my 4.8 and swapped it into this 07 LQ4. I took a look at the flywheel that came on the LQ4 and noticed it had a 3/8 "spacer" on the engine side, so I'm fairly sure that would not have worked with mt 4L60E. I just want to make sure that gap is ok before I go and close the gap by bolting that up.

Thanks,
Andrew

 

I had the same problem. Just used a couple of washers to fill the space. Never had any trouble in 60k plus miles.

 

sounds normal to me...


check out Yanks install guide on www.converter.cc

 

tighten it up! don't use any washers.

 

Per Yanks website, gap should be no more than 5/16 of an inch, use spacers as needed.

 

ok...3/16 sounds like less than 5/16 to me

 

would you like to borrow my tape measure?

 

yes please...mine is metric...

 

hey buddy as you know i just did the same swap .i ran into the same delemma ,come to find out ,just bolt it up its fine ,send it mines fine and i did research it after the fact though lol.

 

suck the converter on up there with the bolts. its normal.
