The problem is that I cannot get the torque converter & flex plate off the back in order to get it bolted on the engine stand. It is sitting on top of a tire right now. I am trying to get the heads off to take a look inside the cylinders to see what is going on. If this isn't definative, I will probably have to turn the block over and take the oil pan off to get to the crank shaft.
