Yes.

That said, I will say when I did the AT1 A8, Circle D converter and billet flexplate, we carefully checked crank end play to make sure we weren’t shoving the driveline up against the crankshaft (and therefore the thrust bearing). Not sure if that helped, but I’ve seen other guys do a converter and then they magically lose their engine. I have to wonder if that’s related. But I’m probably on borrowed time anyway….
