Unless you know how to build a trans, don't do it. I know guys that have rebuilt the same unit several times in less than 20K.

The clearances are precise and there are a few special tools that are needed. Most guys do not have the proper tooling or knowledge to do the job.

A complete trans without a matching valve body is a waste of time. As is mixing parts.
