Yeah, it didn't help that the process included everyone drinking, installing/removing/reinstalling the transmission 4 times, switching between 3 different torque converters, switching between 2 different flex plates, modifying a flex plate by drilling 4 holes by hand, stopping for dinner, installing the trans/block and then removing it and then reinstalling it.
And although we had 5 people in the garage, there seemed to be only 2 people working at a time.
It was quite the night. But it's in and I'm working on the rest right now. Everything should go smoothly now.
Additional pictures to come.
