started the transmission valvebody rebuild today . I'm waiting on parts to finish the engine so figured I'd knock this out. I ordered a sonnax zip kit and new seperater plate . After disassembling and a good cleaning I've already installed several new actuator pistons . So far so good. If anyone is attempting this you have to ordered the kit based on gen of your tranny and the correct separator plate mine was #036 . I should have it back together tomorrow .
