Default 02 XJR Drive plate and Torque Converter bolt hole alignment

Hey guys the motor for my jaguar is now complete put the motor in. Now the only issue is getting the drive plate to align with the torque converter bolt holes. I’m in unsure if it goes in the wider hole or the smaller with the threads. Your help is greatly appreciated.

You should be able to tell by the witness marks left behind on the flax plate.

If you cannot see the witness marks (because you have connected the transmission), search for the flex plate on Ebay and the pictures will probably show which holes are to be aligned with the threaded holes in the torque converter.

Otherwise, if you try to use the threaded holes of the flex plate, you will not be able to get the bolts through the flex plate to engage them with the threaded holes in the torque converter.
