Transmission questions
Hi, truck is an '86 F-150 4x4 351w C6. I'm going to be rebuilding the trans very soon and I have a few questions. First, I'm going to be replacing the stock torque converter with an aftermarket one and I was wondering what the trans input shaft diameter is. Also, if I go with an aftermarket TC, will I need to get a new flexplate? If so, does anybody know what the specs on the flexplate need to be? IE, number of teeth, balancing, weight, etc.

The one question I still have that I couldn't find an answer to was will and aftermarket 11.25" torque converter bolt up to the factory flexplate? Or do I have to get an aftermarket one?

if the convertor was made for a C6 then it should bolt up to your flexplate , but to be sure it would be best to ask the company that makes the convertor !
why do you need the diameter of the shaft ?
