How can you bolt on a torque converter to the flex plate after flex plate is mounted to engine?
You have to put it on the trans input shaft 1st & keep it at a slight downward angle to keep it from falling off. Then mate them (trans/block)& hand thread bolts-block. Then line up holes convertor/flex & put 1 bolt through to keep them that way (turn convertor if needed). Fully tighten bell housing, then you can turn crank bolt to get the other 2 in. If you attach to flexplate first, it will be hard to get trans on & may damage input shaft. It's much easier to turn converter on trans.

The Torque Converter is part of the transmission, not part of the engine. The torque converter needs to come off with the transmission.

Besides loosing all of the fluid in the torque converter, you stand to damage converter seals and/or the pump if the converter isn't properly installed in the transmission.

What is a tork converter and where is it located?
A torque converter is a toroidally shaped assembly mounted between the crankshaft and the automatic transmission. It has two finned plates that are separated by transmission fluid. When the plate attached to the engine spins, the fluid motion makes the other plate spin, which moves the car. It takes the place of a mechanical clutch.

Bad knock on engine people say flex plate on 1979 gmc 350 engine?
If it really IS the flex plate, that's a lot cheaper than other problems that could cause a bad knock. The flex plate is a steel plate that bolts to the rear of the engine and has gear teeth around it. The starter engages with the teeth to start the engine. The torque converter also bolts to the flex plate. All power produced by the engine that is used to move the vehicle goes through the flex plate. Flex plates get old and sometimes crack. When that happens you want to get the old flex plate out of there as soon as you can before it breaks completely and destroys the torque converter. A flex plate is relatively cheap, compared to a complete engine rebuild or replacing the torque converter. To replace the flex plate, simply pull the engine (or transmission, whichever is easiest), unbolt the flex plate from the crankshaft, bolt up a replacement and put the transmission (or engine) back. Of course, there is more involved than that, but it's not as bad as some repairs.
