B&M Holeshot does not fit stock flexplate?

[Machlovin]

The B&M torque converter I bought for my 351c with C6 does not line up with the stock flexplate.... Anyone experience similar issues? However there is a slight chance that my existing torque converter and flex plate aren't original...

My flexplate had multiple holes, it was just a matter of finding the correct ones. I have an after market flexplate though.

iIRC the CJ converter had a different bolt pattern than the standard C6 converter.

What's your center to center measurement on the converter studs and your holes on your flexplate? Like Tommy said 72's were I think about 9 1/4" instead of 11

Fixed. Bought the $80 b&m flexplate. My stock flexplate holes were 9 1/4" instead of the 11" needed.
