The flexplate should be for the engine balance and not depend on the transmission it is attached to.

I ended up pulling it off anyway because of the mid plate. I kept the e4od flexplate because of the ring gear

1990 was the first year for the in-tank high pressure pump.

Flex plate is engine and transmission dependent.

Considering I broke off a bolt then broke the easy out then broke a drill bit then broke a tap I think I shouldn't be pulling apart a transmission especially since I've never done so much as check the oil on an automatic

Probably should get my tools confiscated

We've all been there!

Keep at it, nothing is impossible, ask all the questions you can, no such thing as a stupid question, only stupid answers.

E4OD can be a B#$%&H to work on, but the C6 is not too bad. Get a manual and keep everything spotlessly clean.

I'm getting rid of the slip yoke so I'll call it good after changing that

I'm planning on welding the output off the transfer case to the drive shaft any thoughts or better ideas
