Message	engine with all accessories (power steering, A/C, water pump, alternator)? Just curious as I was turning the crankshaft to align the torque converter to flex plate bolt holes and is seemed to be very difficult. I decided to remove all of the spark plugs and still seems difficult. Engine was running fine before dropping the transmission. Seems strange as the flex plate bolts require 65 ft-lbs which required me to use the crankshaft bolt and jam a cheater bar to eliminate rotation during the torque sequence. I know the crankshaft bolt torque is 159~174 ft-lbs but I searched and couldn't find this torque. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks,
