Tranny Swap - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I took my truck to a Tranny shop to have the pan gasket changed to stop a leak TH350. There were a bunch of chunks of metal and half a washer in the pan, the guy said he couldn't see where it had come from. He said he would guess the Torque Converter is coming apart. I ask what he would charge to buy and build a 700R4 with a B&M shift kit and complete install with a hydraulic lockup converter, he said $1500.oo out the door. Sound Good?

Also I can't get my 383 stroker to get past 130 degrees with my a/c running too. I have aluminum radiator with dual elec. fans.. Should I change my thermostat?
