I have a 1962 impala 4 door, 283 with 2 speed powerglide. The torque converter let go and the bolt/nut setup broke. I purchased what i thought was a matching TC but in fact the bolt holes dont line up woth the flexplate. Looking for any info about this specific TC setup

Not sure if this helps, but if that is the first time the tranny has been out in a while, you should inspect the flex plate carefully. The plate may have some significant wear on the teeth, so it might just be easier to get a new flex plate that matches the TC. Can you seen any part numbers on the plate or the TC?
Nice ride, BTW! :love:
