Converter Bolt Length

[bullfrogjohnson]

Looking for the length of the bolts I need to use with an ATS flywheel and PI converter? Will the stockers work? I dont have any or I would try them.

its american fine thread 1/2 long thats what i just used on my suncost fly wheel into my Ats converter,they were what came with the converter i am not sure what a pi converter use's for thread.ATS sends 12 bolts for their goofy t/c.I have a stock t/c out back and i can check and see if you like

You will damage converter with stock bolts.

I figured they would be to long.

IIRC for a suncoast converter and Ats flywheel the bolts are longer than stock. But i might be wrong

I don't have the exact measurement in memory but; mic the stock flex plate and the ATS and note the difference. Add that to the supplied thread length and you have your answer.

Thanks Mike. The thread pitch should be m10x1.5 right? I don't have anything with me and I am gonna grab some different length bolts at work today
