anything new?
Not so far. I'm awaiting an open spot at the shop. I've been so busy these past few weeks that I had a missed opportunity last week. It's so bad that transmission temp gets up quickly in 5th and 6th gear.

Update:

Loss of line pressure stemming from a malfunctioning valve body burned up 3 sets of clutch packs resulting in slipping/overheating.

Its getting the following

-sonnax valve body zip kit (fixes the root issues in the factory valve body)
-exedy stage 2 clutch packs all the way through
-precision industries 2500 rpm stall converter
-+3 quart deep trans pan w/ heat sink fins
-all new seals all the way through.

What's the general cost for the kit, clutch plates and stall converter?

And thanks for all of your research and sharing it with the world.
