I sent an earlier message about putting the od on the tranny. Never mind,
I got it to slide right together after I connected the converter to the
tranny first and then put on the OD. It had been origionally disconected at
the tranny /converter connection instead of the converter/OD connection. It
is alot easier with the converter mounted on the tranny 1st.
