I have a pretty straight forward question relating to a turbo action cheetah reverse manual valve body. There was one in a race car we use for road course racing, and the transmssion was stuck in between 2 gears for some of the time, pretty much frying the inside clutches and fluid. I am wondering if the valve body got hurt at all or can you flush it out and still use it? I can't seem to find a good answer. I assume theres no real parts that can get damaged in the valve body since it essential just re-routes fluid?
Thanks for any help

You might be able to send it to Cheetah for inspection and cleaning. Might be worth a phone call.
