Car #1:
NZ new E34 525i M50 with ZF 5HP-18 Automatic Transmission.
Car #2:
Japanese import E34 525i M50 with Jatco A5S 300J Automatic Transmission.
Goal:
Put engine #1 into car #2.
Problem:
I can't align torque converter with driveplate to put the x3 17mm bolts in.
It appears to be aligned rotationally (left to right) but it looks like the torque converter hole is a fraction of a mm too low.
I've already re-installed trans to make sure torque converter was all the way in.
I assume both the drive plates are the same?
The shaft on the torque converter lthat goes into the driveplate looks slightly diferent, but i wouldn't think this is the reason?
Any ideas???
