Default 01 Ram 1500 Torque Converter Bolts Diffrent?

So I have a few questions that I have not found on here.
So I'm swapping the trans in my 01 Ram 1500 4x4 5.2 Engine. The 46RE I found seems has a different front bottom of bell-housing, it is level where my stock trans had an indent for the inspection cover/plate. Not sure if it matters. It all bolts up fine but the Torque converter bolts from the old trans are ar smaller size than in the new trans. Any comments are appreciated. The NEW trans number is PK5211952728312137 if this helps

Shouldn't matter. So long as everything bolts up good, you are golden.

Thanks! I hope the rebuilt trans I got just has bigger T/C bolts then. Would love to know what trans I have though. The bell housing bottom being flat gets me worried. Guessing I should change over to my electronics to keep ECM happy just in case.

I think there were some minor differences in the housing, depending on what it was going to end up in. Someone else posted about the same issue.... but, the trans still worked just fine.
