torque converter problems

I bought two differant converters from two differant places and the pilots on the converter will not fit in the back of the crank. Both of the converters are supposed to fit on my truck. Its an FE engine so I don't know what the heck the problem is.

This is kind of obvious, but I assume the crank doesn't have a pilot bushing/bearing in it left over from a manual transmission?

Its always been an automatic, but I know whats the problem now though. The problem I was having was that my converter wouldn't set flush with my flywheel. After I took a careful look at it, I found out that it was my flywheel the whole time. I had bought a new flywheel and it came to me warped.
