I recently sold a flex plate to a man who needed one for a cruiseomatic trans.the one i sold him came off of a 59 edsel 292 with 2 speed trans.He called me today and said the flex plate is different from the defective one he had with the cruiseomatic.Apparently the difference is the 2 speed has 3 mounting bolts and the other has 4 mounting bolts.The question i have is could he use the torque converter and flex plate off of the edsel 2 speed with the cruisomatic or are differences in the two torque converters.

You sold him the flex plate from the later 1959 aluminum 2 spd Fordomatic. As I understand it the F.E. engines that year got the Cruise-omatics. But I don't know if exchanging the converter will work..

Found out today that the cruisomatic torque converter will not work with the two speed flex plate,but found the right flex plate attached to a old y block i have so now two of us are happy
