I would get a TL torque converter

Since both bell housings are identical ( im only saying that because the accord trans fits the TL block ) I would go with the TL torque converter. OR, what about getting an accord flexplate and keep the accord Torque converter?

Have you measured the input splines on both transmissions? Does your TL torque converter fit into the accord trans. Meaning just put it on for testing purposes.

The 07 accord TC that came with the transmission is the same as the my TL TC, well bolt pattern wise. The bolt pattern to the flex plate is 11.250". The TC I ordered from autozone (07 accord v6 baya trans) has a bolt pattern of 10.250".

No, I haven't measured it. I gave the (accord) core to autozone. I did place the TL TC into the accord trans and it fit perfectly. Also i had a friend look the TC for both cars and he said they have the same part #. I wanted to see if any one else could verify that, and why was the TC from autozone so off?
