Thanks for the head up on the pump. I found that that the donor trans had had the cogs, or tabs, inside the support that engage the torque converter are sheared off. Which is why the used Trans didn't work after being installed in the car. I went through both the original and the donor trans. I was able to assemble a good pump with new seals. I soaked the friction disks for a couple of hours or so, and reassembled the K-1 and K-2 with soaking wet disks and plates. I packed them up in gallon sized ziplock bags for safe keeping over night.
tomorrow I'm going to strip the tail support and replace the seals.
I'm trying to take photos along the way, but working alone with dirty hands makes it difficult at times. When I'm done I'll put together a series of photos showing what I came across and the steps I took to correct them.
A big thanks to whunter and MAVA for their guidance.
