Thanks David. That sounds like "it".

TheDon: Hey, Man! What it is?

pawoSD: Yes, I've tried everything. As to your cost analysis: In my area, everything I've hired out- no matter what- I've wound up redoing. Competence is not a strong point in this area. Like I said in my previous posts, auto trans is about the only skill I lack. So, replacement with a rebuilt is about the only option. $2200 (at cost) for reman trans and torque converter, plus freight, plus return freight on cores, plus labor... out here $2500- 3K will buy a NICE 560, because our economy is horrible.

wbain5280: Yes, shift bushings and all external controls are in great shape.

Johnhef: D'oh! Good point!
