best thing to do is to stick something like a tie wrap into where the converter seats all the way.. use a flash light so you know you are hitting the back... and mark the tie wrap at the seal.. use this measurement against the snout of the converter and mark right above it with a marks alot.. then install the converter... keep going untill the mark you made on the snout is right at the seal...
mine was tough.. i aint gonna lie.. but this made me feel alot better about knowing it was fully seated..

Lube the o-ring very well and make sure it is not rolling up on the shaft as you are installing the converter. I had a difficult time with the first converter I had with my 80 and figured out it was hanging where the turbine engages the oring. the tolerances were too tight to slide over the oring, thus rolling it out of the groove onto the input shaft and binding.
