Confirmed. Wrong converter in more ways than 1. Should have been the #6v with both bolt patterns. Got a #6d for a pre 96. They're checking the build sheet now.
Update: Correct converter being built. Will be shipped overnight. Due in Thursday, Friday at the latest.

Learned something new today. Torque converters with the 90 degree bolt pattern have a 90 or a 0 with a line through it that identifies them. The models that do not have the 90 degree bolt pattern simply have a 0 or at O with an x in the middle. The converter I pulled off has a the 90 degree bolt pattern which is correct for my year model. I'll have the replacement one pulled tomorrow and it'll be interesting to see if it's the correct one. Fred, the torque converter guy @ PATC stated he hasn't seen a bolt pattern quality issue in his 25 years as a converter dude. My statement, there's a first time for everything. :-)
Edit: the symbols are stamped on the bolt pad side either between the pads or on the next flat surface towards the center.
