Heck yes, factory tech. I sell transgos and was ready to pick one off the shelf for my truck and then I found factory tech. http://www.factorytechtransmissions....WPROD&ProdID=7

This is the part you will need, if you have a gas motor. To install, ubolt the trans pan, take out a dozen bolts and two nuts, slide the orignal valve body off the studs and push the new one on. It's an hour install if you rush it, but 1.5hrs taking your time and enjoying the job.
