Torque converter bolt pattern

I have a 94 f150 with a 4r70w Trans. I have noticed that there are different bolt patterns listed for the converter. Can anyone tell me which one I have?

Were do you listing. As far as I know there is not a pattern, none listed in the shop manual. Just align the orange balancing marks on converter stud and flywheel bolt hole if balancing marks are present.
Torque the nuts to 27-46 N-m (20-34 lb-ft).

I thought you were asking about a torque sequence pattern and not a circle diameter.
I think all 4R70W torque converter bolt circle diameter are the same.
If you really need one I guess I could go out to the barn an measure one if nobody else posts it.

The studs on the torque converter are 11.5" across center to center of stud.
Could be the 11.4" but it looked 11.5" to me.
The outside of the torque Converter is about 12.75" across.

The TC's in these trucks will all be the large bolt circle (11.4"), not the small bolt circle (10.625").
