may have some C4 knowledge here, will ask while I got a chance…
I understand that only 1 co. makes parts to make this tranny having 'engine braking' in first gear - most just have it in 2nd & 3rd. (wanna use it in a workin bronk that skids logs up 2 the neighbor's band saw mill). I think the co's name is "Performance" or something like that - R U guys familiar or can U assist in sourcing prts? Tranny is from a V8 and will B behind a torquie six (less HP/similar tq).

The seller stated that he had it rebuilt by a local shop but never reinstalled it. He purchased the TC after the rebuild so I know I never had the shop mate both of them up. He is asking $50 for the tranny and tc. I feel like if its something simple it is worth the asking price but if it needs a full rebuild again then I will rebuild the one I have.
Mark, as for the pump clearance, does the larger thrust washer set that and the smaller washer set the input shaft end play? Or is it the other way around?

A Tranny that a guy says he has had a shop rebuilt plus added TC is not cheap to do. Plus the cash he paid for it in the first place.
If I was him, I'd want at least my money out of it wouldn't you think?
But not to give it away.. per say
Ask for any receipts as proof from the rebuild or the TC if none then buyer beware. Take it to a shop and have it rebuilt if needed or freshen up..

The torque converter may or may not be worth the asking price alone. 1st ask for a receipt. And make sure it's application applies to your TRUCK. Then I would sent the $50.00 tranny to a local tranny shop and have them pull it apart and see what's wrong with it. Fix it. They may charge you a lot less than a full rebuild. Now you will have a good tranny all the while still driving your truck.
