Angry Replaced engine and Tran Leaks HELP ?????

I have just replaced engine in my 96 and the transmission is gushing fluid out of the bellhousing....
Does anyone have any idea what I did wrong?!?!?!?

OK, I think I know what I did/didn't do.
but is it possible to unbolt the drive plate from the torque converter and turn the drive plate until the torque converter goes back into place.

Man I don't want to take that engine out again.
This is the second rebuilt I've had. The first one lasted 2 weeks and threw a rod!


HELP, PLEASE

I feel your pain but you might just have to bite the bullet.

Can you take the tranny out instead?

Re: Replaced engine and Tran Leaks!!!

yes, I can only drop tranny.
I was hoping beyond hope for an alternative.
I've already dropped the engine/tranaxle/X-brace twice.
First time with no problems except that the reman'd engine was no good.
