The '92-'96 Corvette Starter REQUIRES a 153 Tooth Flexplate!

I'm going to state this for others looking at this thread......
To use a 153 Tooth Flexplate with a TH400 transmission....You must use a TH350 converter or a converter with a 10.75" bolt circle. It will NOT accept a 11.50 bolt circle converter!
