I recently removed my engine and tranny for an engine rebuild that I'm in the process of doing. I put my tranny on the engine stand now by itself and started inspecting it. I'm a little worried about some things. I noticed that the output shaft has a decent amount of play. How much is normal? Would there be alot less if the torque converter was bolted to the flywheel? Also the torque converter worried me. I drained it and when I was flipping it over to put it back on I could hear and feel something inside of the torque converter moving (like flopping around not a spinning motion). I know that there is different components inside like a stator but I'm not sure if it should be able to move around like this.
