Well Bud,

No updates but heart aches..
It seems my transmission needs to be rebuilt.

So now its who I can trust to rebuild it and rebuild it right or just buy a new one with a warranty.
The transmission came out of a 1970 Chevrolet C-10 or a C-20 Custom Camper Special Long Wheel Base Pickup my dad had at the time.

So checked with Jegs and Summit and it seems Summit is cheaper on shipping.
JEGS Performance Products 60300 - $792.98

(Truck Freight: Terminal Pickup)
Summit® transmissions have been remanufactured with all-new clutches, kevlar band, seals, bushings, and thrust washers, plus a brand-new performance separator plate. Other features include a rebuilt front pump, a recalibrated manual/automatic valve body, and high-quality seals and gaskets. You get all these quality upgrades, plus reliable performance that can handle up to 450 hp.

I got a new Summit Racing Trans Pan that will match.
Anyhoot she will be down untill I get the new trans.
I just dread taking the old trans out and installing the new one in.
All I have is jack stands.... and the truck is low
