You are a better mechanic than I am if that TH350 was a usable tranny after you got done. My skills are limited and I will be the first to admit it. I hate that I have those limits but am dealing with that set of limits. Now on the R&P I would try it if I had a dial indicator and a set of detailed instructions but failing those parameters I wouldn't touch the job.

Well the turbo 350 is probably the easiest to rebuild...Trust me if my dad and I could do it anyone could..My dad is pretty darn handy with cars so that helped but yeah it ran great till I wrapped the car around a telephone pole..

Telephone poles are unhealthy for any vehicle to be wrapped around. Trust me on this!!

Belto find out which solenoids are bad, for future reference so that if you see someone else with this problem you can help them solve it.

Good plan. I didn't know you were in college. Do you go in San Juan or where? What are you studying for (degree) and when do you graduate?
