ABSTRACT:
A drive connection between an engine and a torque converter and clutch assembly has a pair of splined members. One spline member is secured to the input shell of the torque converter and the other spline member is secured to the engine. The clutch is operable to connect the engine to the output of the torque converter at a position which, in part, bypasses the spline connection and reduces or eliminates the torque load on the spline connection.
