    Flywheel/Torque Converter Fasteners

    in Buick - Post War

    Posted

    I am looking for the 3 fasteners that bolt the torque converter to the flywheel. I cant find mine... I am told they are a special fastener, "Shouldered bolt". 1954 322/dynaflow. 

    The previous posts sent me looking to no avail. ARP needs more info than i can provide, Hometown and the54 highway didn't turn anything up. Matt at Centerville says they don't stock them and they are not reproduced. so i gotta find some sitting in a bone yard.

    The shop manual shows thread pitch and parts book just shows group.

     

    Any help out there? 

    Thanks in advance!

    I cannot find the 3 fasteners that bolt the flywheel to the torque converter. I don’t remember for sure but I thought they were flat headed, round and with a flat side. Anyone have 3 I could purchase? 1954 Buick 322 with a Dynaflow. Maybe it isn’t a special bolt and im overthinking it…

    thanks,

    Exhaust manifold bolt torque

    in Buick - Post War

    Posted

    I'm picking away at my project, mounting exhaust manifolds with new hardened bolts, the manual says 10 to 15 ft/lbs which seems really loose. I am missing 2french locks but will get them. Should I go more than the 10-15 or stick with the manual? Should I be using lock washerrs or no?

    thanks for your input!

    Well, you can't do all your shopping online. And catalogs still have their place.

    You can use the catalog instead of the corn cobs as occasional treat during clean up...

    Keep it Stock?

    Thank you, thank you very much Keith.

     

    Randy, I wasn't  trying to prompt a debate or piss anyone off, merely trying to keep the P/M forum lively with a bit of humor. But if anyone would like to start a debate, have at it, in you own thread.  I'll certainly defend the Modified Division or any other division that might bring more members to the club and perhaps give new life to some old forgotten Buick.    

     Mr. Earl did mention the highlighted area...
