Ok the guy that built the tranny was able to take the tranny apart today. He found a cracked pressure plate and all of the valve body bolts finger loose or backed out a couple threads. He said the pressure plate most likely cracked because of heat and the loose bolts on the valve body didn't matter he said it didn't have to be a perfect seal. The filter was full as stumpy said with a bunch of finely ground up aluminum. He said it was the torque converter that went bad and caused the problem. What do you guys think ?????




Which valve body bolts were loose , the ones holding it to the case or the ones holding the halves together ? What did the rear support where the mainshaft rides look like ? If all the crap came from the convertor it should have destroyed that part and the possibly mainshaft.

If he is going to warranty it he knows that what he did had to do with it going south .

I would get a better convertor.
