302/C4 issue

Silly question for you guys. I'm putting a 302/C-4 combo in a buddies '66 Bronco. The motor is a 302 out of a '75 Bronco that had a manual trans. The C-4/D20 combo came out of another Bronco of a similar year. The trans came as a package deal off of Craigslist and included the converter, starter, t-case, flex plate, and the metal shim between trans and motor. When I get everything bolted together the motor won't turn over. I did engage the converter in the trans and it seems to be in as far as it will go. My question`is, did Ford change the back of the crank between M/T's and autos? Is there perhaps a different converter? Any suggestion or parts number will be appreciated! The Bronco was originally I-6 so I'm flying in the dark here. Thanx!~

Does the converter pilot fit the crank shaft?

You should have to remove the pilot bearing for the standard transmission.
