E40D upgrade or rebuild
The E40D backing my 1994 5.8 F150 has come of age, and let me know it. It didn't get treated very well, and now its exacting revenge. So, with a slew of engine modifications on deck, I would like to make sure the transmission (and the rest of the driveline) will hold up.
My question is whether I would be better saved to have the transmission rebuilt by a local guy (though I don't know anyone around Seattle) or switch it with an aftermarket all-beef tranny. Im not so worried about cost, but Im not going to blow my retirement fund on this either.
Any suggestions/recommendations?
