You really ought to drop the tranny and flip your flex plate around to get full engagement, unless you verified that it's right. I know it's a pain, but that's the right way to do it, especially considering that the reversed flex plate pushes your converter back too far, and may cause your tranny to fail way early. I saw one post that said they lost the front pump at 10,000 miles.
