Is it a bad idea to fire it up without the flywheel "cover" bottom support bracket on the bottom? I still have a whole bunch of top side stuff to install but would like to (try to) start it or at least bump it a bit to move some oil and then recheck the flywheel to TC bolt torque. (dunno)

I'm sure the engine won't move much since everything else is secure. Torque converter bolts are torqued and the mounts are tight. All the other top bell housing to engine bolts are in (6 of them). Just wondering if bad things could happen if I fire it up with the bottom "structural" plate off.
