    Gees dale.

    Are you having the same trans built each time? From what I;ve been told, multiple rebuilds in the same case will usually result in issues. I dunno...

    Might consider a TH400 and some 3:23's.

    Damn the bad luck.

    See if he'll exchange your transmission under warranty for something else because it's clear that one has got to have something really wrong with it. Could be a bad pump, housing or a crack somewhere in it.
