Re: mystery sound



Neal I'd pull that thing and fast !! I've seen engines scatter all over the road with a misbalanced engine configuration like that. At least knock the weights off the converter minimum. But a cheap converter from t flight patty for an internal balanced engine would not be that expensive. Be advised crank breakage will happen with bad balance

Well, to begin with, a 360 convertor will have balance weights on it as a 360 is externally balanced, whereas, a 273 is internally balanced (no flywheel/convertor weights). Also, The convertor/crank flange size changed somewhere around 1967, so you need a bushing for a large flange crank to a small nub convertor.

Subject: mystery sound

heres a stumper for you folks. Finally got the barrracuda fired up and the motor sounds great, but the mysterious sound I mentioned last week has been traced to the bellhousing area, it has to be a bolt or the flexplate clattering on the tin plate between motor( 360) and tranny (904). I peeled back the plate and checked all four bolts. They are down tight and are all the correct flat head style TQ bolts. When I swapped trannies I kept the torque converter from the 360 ( AND FLEXPLATE) but the tranny was from my old 273. As to the tin plate , not sure where that came from. Any ideas here?? Does a 273 tranny not take a 360 converter??
