40 Series Pulley Alignment Question

[CillerCrocCustoms]

Hey everyone I got a new 40 Series Torque Converter from GoPowerSports. I just wanted to know if it is aligned the right way. Wasn’t given instructions for it and I’ve seen a lot of different takes online unsure of which is correct. Thank you?

Cant tell for sure but it looks a little crooked. Maybe remove a washer from the driver but again, I cant tell perfectly. Looks a little out of alignment to me.

Since it is a 40 series, NOPE!!!! The driven clutch the spring should face inboard or the drive clutch should be turned around.

Sorry denny your incorrect.

In that pic CCC, if direction of travel is up, then the orientation is correct. The rubber buttons must be on the trailing side of the wedge in the direction of rotation.
A 40 series is symmetrical, so it can be run either way, but you have to change springs to wind it the other way.

I made a quick video explaining it to some one else. Ill post it again.

I know about the spring, but I’ll just stick with what the guys who designed it recommend. The belt still needs to line up in use.
