what could be wrong?
I had to take my tranny out of my truck and doing so I turned the converter counterclockwise to take bolts off. I did this again when putting them back on. Was that the wrong way? I drove truck and shifted fine but then died on me and didnt want to start again. Whats wrong now?
Im thinking i knocked it out of timing turning it ccw. Is that possible?

No it wouldn't have changed the timing by doing that.
Need more info. Does it crank or nothing at all? |

Re: what could be wrong?
Wire off the neutral safety @ the starter would be my first guess. Second would be wires from the starter to the ign coil.

Re: what could be wrong?
Now don't ask how i know this but is there a chance that you wiring harness or a single wire was pinched between the tranny and the motor ?? look behind the distributor and see if a wire wound up stuck
