I could do it again as there is a wrecked 95 e320 in welcome, nc for $1000.
I just don't think I can emotionally handle another gazzillion hours (less obviously cuz I'm practically an expert at removal and installation of the 722.369).
Creed rebuilt the tranny in my 04 odyssey at 250k miles and its awesome.
I know I could buy another working e320 for what I'm paying to rebuild this tranny. But I already did the evaporator and the SLS on this wagon and I know it from soup to nuts.
Just wanted to run this by everyone. Not wearing a flame suit so I may start crying like a little girl.

Creed is now a known and local entity to you. I would say your decision making on this was sound advice to yourself. The buying of used components is Russian Roulette, and totally price (bargain) driven....
