Yeah, most converters have some drive notches on the shaft that MUST mate with the drive ears for the pump. Before you install the converter, make sure the drive ears are centered around the input shaft and so you have a rough idea what orientation they are in.
When you push the converter into position, it should stop GENTLY and then a turn in the correct direction should result in an additional maybe quarter inch slide in. If you have to force it something is wrong.
Good Luck,
