Thread: Torque converter to flexplate bolt torque

Tweet

Hi,

I am installing a 700R4 tranny on my 383 stroker, which will sit in my 62 Corvette. But I can't find any information on which torque setting should be used on the bolts that attach the torque converter to the flexplate. Does anyone have a clue?

Thanks,

Chris in Sweden....

If all ya have is an inch-lb torque wrench, 270 works.
